Reviewed from notes. The appearance has a copper/bronze colored body, half finger white foamy head slowly dies within a half minute, nice sticky spider web lacing clings tightly to the pint glass. The aroma has the pine/citrus hops up front, slight maltiness comes forward as the beer warms. The taste is bittersweet just as an AIPA should be, pine/citrus hops begin bitter and gradually allow the malts to intricate themselves within the flavoring, nice bitter piney aftertaste; dry sticky finish. On the palate, its about a light to medium, fairly sessionable, carbonation is spot on for the style and for me as the sharpness is there but there is an aspect of smoothness that is more than enjoyable, big wow from me. Overall, AIPA - outa the park Schmaltz, holey moley, I can’t believe I had to move to Alaska to find this, I most certainly would have this again

Smells hoppy, coppery, a bit malty. Lots of head, but dissipates quickly. Thin body. Nice amber color. Very sweet and floral at first then surprisingly bitter finish. Decent IPA but nothing terribly exciting.

Location: Sampled at Living Social Beerfest, 12/6/13
Aroma: The aroma has some nice hops, citrus, a little earth, and some caramel malts
Appearance: This one pours a clear amber color with a nice, cream colored head and average lace
Flavor: The taste is light-medium sweet with a nice malty flavor and a mid-heavy hop bitterness
Palate: The body is medium, it has a decent feel, soft carbonation, and a dry finish
Overall Impression: I have found this one to be a really nice example of an IPA. Good stuff. It hits nicely on most of the marks that you look for in the style.

Cloudy amber beer, goods cream coloured head. Palate is softish and a little airy. Mild fine carbonation. Nice soft creamy malt base. Good hops - rich tangerine and orange, mild marmalade. Whisper of aniseed. Finishes soft and creamy with mellow hop bitterness. A mellow and luxuriant IPA - very nice indeed!
