2014 World Beer Cup® Gold Award Winner, American-Style IPA. Hops in your face. Crisp, mouthwatering, American citrus hops dominate for an ideal IPA character. It’s hopped before, during and after the boil with late boil additions of Citra and Amarillo for a complex flavor profile. The rich golden color comes from a blend of English and American base malts accented with substantial amounts of Vienna and Wheat malt. This is the beer that started it all for NoDa Brewing.

Draft at Appalachian Vinter during RBWG 2014 - Asheville. Pours clear, yellow-gold with a white foam head. Clean, dank nose with hits of tangerine and pine. Pith. Great flavor, plenty of grapefruit, aged pee, light pine needles, grass, tangerine. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Dank and resinous to finish with more piss, grass and tangerine. Excellent dank IPA.

On tap @ NoDa with jcnielsen. Pours a bit hazy golden orange appearance with a white head. Definitely fruit forward hops in the nose (grapefruit, mango, tropical fruits). Fairly spicy and dank nose. Clean aroma. Grapefruit and resin in the flavor. Bitterness held well within check. Maybe a bit malty but not bad. Soft mouthfeel. Light bitterness on the finish. Nice fruit notes. Drinks good.

Location: 16 oz Can at Big Daddy Burger Bar @ CLT, 12/21/13
Aroma: The nose is resiny and big on hops, fresh aroma, tropical and citrus hops too
Appearance: It pours a hazy golden color with an off-white head and some lace
Flavor: The taste is much the same, clean and resiny, nice bitterness, balancing sweetness
Palate: The body is medium, it has a soft, clean feel, and a nice, dry finish
Overall Impression: I really enjoyed this one. I may have enjoyed it too much, coming back from drinking way too many dull lagers in the Caribbean, but I just really enjoyed it. It has a very nice hop flavor, and was a wonderful surprise.

7.2% CASK with mango: A golden IPA with a thin white head. In aroma, a beautiful mix of piney floral hops, tropical fruits, and light mentol. In mouth, biscuit malt over floral resinous and piney hops, grassy, tropical fruits and alcohol warmth.
