A traditional English Indian Pale Ale that is reminiscent of the beers shipped to India from England in the 1850′s. Heavily hopped with five separate additions of American Amarillo, Citra and Cascade hops. This straw coloured IPA is well balanced and will leave you wanting more… be carfull as the ale come with a traditional alcohol content of 6.5%.

Amber and bright, brassy amber malt nose, earthy character, low bitterness for style. Hops are subtle, a little berryish and that’s about it. Not really IPA but decent amber/apa on the malty side.

On tap at Noble Pig, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Aroma is light on the hops with biscuity malt and a very light dry hoppiness. Flavour is rather sharp, with herbal hops, a little British tinge to it, and crisp crackery malt. Decent balance, with a good astringency on the finish. Solid IPA.

Draft - Floral sweet orange hops. Thick of white head and clear dark copper. Hops stand out with the orange and pine dominating followed by some sweetness to round out and an appropriate amount of bitterness. All the ingredients are there, but for some reason aren’t in harmony as they should be. I like it for a local brew, but it is just missing something.
