I am not an IPA person, so take that into consideration. Carbonation is really good. Appearance, color, and lacing is good. As an IPA, it is not an over powering hoppy taste. Easy to drink. I thought the bitterness was sort of mild. I can drink it, but not one of my favorite beers.

Poured from 12 oz bottle into Newcastle schooner glass.
Appearance: a 1"+ off white pillowy head drops slowly with plenty of lacing on the glass. Color is clear amber with abundant streaming carbonation.
Aroma: mixture of malty bread-dough like aroma with floral and a bit of citrus hops.
Mouthfeel: light to medium bodied with a sticky, slightly puckering astringent mouthfeel. Finish is dry.
Flavor: citrus rind, grapefruit hops are more forward with floral and herbal hops in the background. Malt flavors are slight caramel and cracker like breadiness. Alcohol is evident, but not overwhelming. There is a bit of warming from the alcohol in the finish.
Overall: beer tastes like its name: an English style IPA upgraded with higher hops and more alcohol. Well done.
