Kua Bay IPA is a bright, bold, copper-colored India Pale Ale. Piney hops, spices, and a subtle caramel maltiness make it a delicious beer that’s both full-bodied and flavorful.

Got this surprize bottle from Martin, thanks dude. I thot I had it befor ebut now I see its a new beer. Dranlf right from the bottle, the taste is certainly IPA. Its also got a little carbonation for a change. Goes down fairly easy for an IPA, you know, almost the gag reflex but not. Anyway, this is a terribly on style IPA and what else can be said?
