Gatecrasher gets into the sold-out show without a ticket. It doesn’t have to shout for people to listen. It arrives fashionably late but closes the place down. Our India Pale Ale stands apart from the bitter crowd and entices with bountiful aromatic hops and a touch of malt sweetness, proving there’s more than one way to crash a gate.

355ml can. Pours a slightly hazy orange-gold with a large, foamy, long lasting, white head that laces. Mild aroma of bready caramel malt, orange peel, earthy yeast and herbal hops. Sweet flavour of biscuit malt, caramel, orange peel, tangerine, earthy yeast and floral in a bitter grass finish. Medium body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. Nothing exciting, but a solid English IPA.

Sampled from the tap at GMTW 2019. Pours a clear orange gold with a white head that dissipates slowly to the edges and laces slightly. Aroma has a bit of pine with light citrus and a sweet grain and earthy bread backbone. Flavor has earthy citrus and a light pine note with a bread backbone.

Slightly hazy golden and copper coloured body with a nice, three centimetre tall off-white head. Aroma of english hops, malt, alcohol, sugars, caramel, toffee, earth and a bit more hops - nice and grassy/peaty. Medium-bodied; Assertive nutty and earthy flavoured malt up front with a good deal of hop bitterness, some light citrus and piney notes along with a good amount of alcohol punch showing through. Aftertaste shows some toffee and caramel along with metal and alcohol bitterness to complement the hops and the malt, but a good balance of malt and hops without being an American IPA for sure - this is showing some english components, but still shows more hops than anything really English. Overall, a good IPA with some nice tastes that definitely feels different than a typical American IPA. Nice to try if you don’t like West Coast IPAs or want something ’slightly’ different. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Trader Joe’s in Chicago (Ontario Street), Illinois on 11-February-2016 for US$1,67 sampled at home in Washington on 27-August-2016.

Refrigerated 12 oz. aluminum can poured into a glass. Clear light orange with small white head. Aroma is nice citrus hops, medium body, low carbonation, and very little lacing. Taste is citrus hops and bitter finish.

Can. Pours a hazy amber color with a frothy white head. Aromas and tastes are of earthy hops and sweet caramel malt. Medium bodied with a bitter finish. Rather malt forward IMHO. Not my favorie version of an IPA.

Pour is a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma is a nice earthy malt with a herbal hop. Flavor is a spicy chewy malt with a nice hoppy backbone. Finish leaves equal parts resin hops and dry bready malt. An American version of a English IPA with a much larger hop presence than versions from across the pond.

12oz can. Unfiltered murky orange body. Foamy, glass lacing off-white head. Kind of an earthy, soapy hop feel. Medium bland grainy, earthy malts. Not an impressive offering, but drinkable in some aspects.

12 oz can at Boiler Room in Chicago, Illinois. The pour is golden orange with a small white head. The aroma is caramel malt with tangerine citrus fruit. The taste is the citrus hops and the caramel toasted malt, flavors are a blend of bitter and sweet. Perhaps more malt forward, though nice balance. The palate is medium to light bodied, active carbonation and a clean bitter finish. Solid.
