TASTING NOTES: A non-traditional India Pale Ale with big citrusy, hop flavor and intense hop aroma. Medium-bodied with a vibrant lingering hop-bitterness that is anything but brutal. Enjoy!

Who wants cheese in an IPA? Not me. Oxidised mess. Ruined by shockingly poor distribution.

Bottle at home from Beer Hawk. Mostly clear orange / amber coloured pour with a lasting loose off white head. Aroma is chewy, caramel malts, orange rind, some biscuit, hints of pine. Flavour is compose of semi-sweet, caramel biscuity grains, orange, tangy, hints of earth and maybe a little pine. Palate is medium bodies, semi sweet, highish carbonation, little chewy. DeScription says "A non traditional ipa" But this is now tasting decided old school.

A beautifully balanced IPA. I was expecting something very challenging based on the name and on the brewery’s well-deserved reputation for pushing the envelope. There’s a great mix of lemon, grapefruit, lime, sherbet, musk and cherry. The grapefruit and cherry are prominent on tasting, as well as toast. A really enjoyable experience.

Fruity orange sweet sugar orange tea w/lots of sugar. White raisins. Dried dusty apricot. Sugary sweet w/over moderate bitter. Body is medium to full, carbo is low, texture is oily, grainy. Finishes quite nice & round. Pretty nice, could be fresher..

Body is medium to full, carbo is low, texture is oily, grainy. Finishes quite nice and round.

Bottle shared thanks to sjogro. Slight hazy amber with off white head. Caramel, lychee, dried apricot, some peach, cardboard, light herbs and some curry, light grains. Almost medium sweet and bitter. Medium bodied with a bit slick feel. Seems a bit old.

Ambar, no mucha espuma que dura poco. Potente aroma resinoso lupulado, citrico, fruta tropical. En boca es menos brutal de lo que anuncia el aroma y el nombre. Base dulce azucarada, y frutal mas que brutal, algo de pomelo amargo, pero bastante más melocotón. Equilibrada, muy sabrosa. Final bastante amarga al final.

Lys orangebrun klar med lavt hvitt skum. Fruktig lukt, røde bær og fersken. Lett søtlig smak, fruktig, medium bitterhet. Godt balansert.

650ml bottle into shaker. As ’Portland State IPA’. Smoky malt nose, hoppy background. Translucent orange colour appearance with creamy white head with good lacing. Steady and fine carbonation. Slight zing, oily texture. Gorgeous hops complemented by creamy malt background. Finish is short and subtly fruity. Really easy drinking for 6.3%! Nice.
