The Upland Dragonfly IPA is a malty and hoppy brew. Note the clean malty fullness on the front of the palate with fruity citrus overtones, attributable to our special hops. Dry hopping creates a floral aroma, and our use of bittering hops lends a strong bitter taste in the back of the tongue and throat.

Aroma is slightly piney, slightly floral, slightly bready. Taste has a moderate to high pithy bitterness backed by some serious old school caramel malt sweetness. Carbonation is on the softer side.

Can, from Jewel Osco, Chicago. Pours clear dark yellow/orange with a large foamy beige head, very faint piney aroma, adequate carbonation, bitterish orange peel taste, piney flavor, thin smooth body, long bitter finish. Nice classical American IPA.

16 oz draft at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana. This was my celebratory beer following Marquette’s win and advancement to the Sweet Sixteen. The pour is a clear orange, golden copper with a small off white head. The aroma is caramel malt, floral and a soft pineapple orange fruit. The taste is a nice blend between malt backbone and the floral and fruit sweetness, very much old school IPA flavors. The palate is medium to light bodies, softer carbonation and a malt fruit softly sweet finish.

Can. Clear amber with a large white head that lasts pretty well. Aroma is toasty and floral with some berries and kumquats. There's not a lot to the malt except caramel but there are berries and pine towards the bitter finish. A bit of a throwback but OK.

Taster at Columbus taproom. Medium golden, clear, wispy head, streaky lacing. Aroma is sweet, fruity, light. Flavor is also subtle, sweet, gentle bitterness. Really flavorful and easy to drink.

16 oz. can. Hazy gold, white head. Melon, citrus, caramel, bit of pine. Pretty well balanced and not a hop bomb.

Tap. Pours clear pale copper, small beige head, good lacing. Aroma is really light, hints of pine and grapefruit. Flavor is light plus sweet, light plus bitter, muted flavor profile with pine and grapefruit hops, Bready malt hints of caramel. Medium body. NondeScript, but not flawed

Pours a cloudy amber-copper, with mid-sized head. Aroma of pine, grass, some citrus. Flavor fairly sweet, with balanced mix between the hops and malt. Nice citrus and pine flavors. Good burger accompaniment.

Slightly Hazy Brownish Orange Color, Big Foamy Head That Lasts And Leaves Lots Of Lacing. Surprisingly Just a Very Faint Aroma of Pine and Citrus. Malt, Resin, Pine, Bitter Hops. Strong and Long Lasting Bitter Aftertaste with very light Sweetness at the end. Enjoyed It. Nice. Recommended.
