This is our unique version of an ancient style. A style as old as the ocean trade routes of the last centuries of Great Ships. Not as old as the equator they had to cross twice enroute, nor as old as the 10,000 miles or so of Di-Hydrogen Oxide and Sodium upon which they sailed, but older than the Circulithium-4 Lentoid that binds the Lupulin Quartnate onto your taste buds. Weird. Think about it. Now stop. OK, go again. Now stop. Think again. And stop. But we digress. Made with 43 different hops and 65 various malts, this redolent ale will likely float your boat, whatever planet you're on.

Bottle. Clear dark gold with a really nice white head. Aroma of grapefruits, lemons, oranges, pine and some biscuits. Taste of citrus fruits, malts, caramel, pine and resin. Strong and lasting bitterness. Medium carbonation. Balanced. Nice one.

One of the first US craft beers I ever had (many many years ago), and a great introduction to US IPAs - pours a lovely clear pale gold with a frothy white head and a piney, citrus, floral aroma. Softly carbonated and smooth, with grapefruit bitterness, some caramel sweetness and floral hops all combining very nicely
