Trestles IPA is light bodied, clean and pleasantly hoppy. Simcoe and Centennial hops contribute to its great citrus flavor and the creative use of four hops keeps this beer easy drinking and moderately bitter.

Bottle: Pours cloudy amber-orange with a frothy, off-white head. Citrus, orange-grapefruit aroma. Taste is leafy, resiny bitter...malty. A decent IPA, wish the citrus showed up as much in the flavour as the nose, though.

Pours a copper-gold with minimal head. Aroma and flavor are both very floral-grassy, with some citrus and a lot of malt present. Not bad but not real great, either.

12oz bottle poured into a shaker. Pours a slightly cloudy medium orange with a half finger of white head. Aroma of caramel and dank hops. Taste is heavily bitter. Like licking a pine tree...very one sided. Medium bodied with a thin texture. Very soft carbonation and a very long bitter finish. Overall, ok. Its just very bitter and not at all complex.

Location: 22 oz bottle from Central Market, 9/18/13
Aroma: The nose is full of orange juice, grapefruit, hops, and some caramel/toffee
Appearance: A total and complete gusher: pours a hazy orange color with a frothy white head
Flavor: This one tastes hoppy and a little sweet, it is juicy and citrusy as well
Palate: Lighter body, with a clean/crispness, a long, dry finish, and way too much carbonation
Overall Impression: Unfortunately this was such an absurd gusher that I lost a good 25% of the beer. What a waste! Anyway, this one is pretty good, but that carbonation does hurt the drinkability. As a fruity/juicy IPA though, I enjoyed it.

Bottle. Pours a clear golden/orange color. Thin white head, good lacing. Aroma is mild citrus and piney floral hops. Taste is on par... bitter, dry, and resinous with just a touch of sweet malt for balance. Nice IPA, but in all honesty; nothing really stood out to catch my attention.

A bottle I picked up on sale at Antenna America in Yokohama. It poured a nice copper with a white head. The citrusy hop aroma was great, the flavor starts off with sweet citrus, some caramel type malt notes, a bit of pine and a clean bitter finish. A solid IPA.

From a 22 oz bottle shared in Breckenridge CO. Pours a cloudy pale amber with an off white head. Somewhat grassy aroma. Fairly malt forward for an IPA. Bitter finish.
