Bottled. Brownish amber with brief head. Wonderful lightly grapefruity aroma. Dry with clean, hard mouthfeel and nicely balanced bitterness.

Good orange tint to a golden colour with a dense airy head. Hoppy smell throughout. Thin-bodied and weak flavour. Decent initial taste, but it fades away quickly and left is a malty tate with a little hops. Not a great beer, but definately not the worst IPA!

Not a bad IPA by any means. Decently hopped, but the body is a bit thin. Something about this tastes very "mass-market" for some reason. Still pretty good, though.

Updated detail: Nice orangey-grapefruity hop aroma, light hint of malt. Hazy orange-amber with small dense head. Good lacing. Virtually no malt sweetness up front. First taste is back of the mouth bitterness, followed by a mild orangey hop flavor and a touch of light malt floats around somewhere in the background. Finish is a long lingering bitterness. Palate is light with low carbonation. General impression is dominated by bracing bitterness.

Middle of the road IPA. Hops were somewhat present in the aroma. Clear gold with a thin, short-lived head. Taste did seem slightly unbalanced. Hops flavor just didn't have the legs for which I was hoping. I would take the Fuller's or Sam Smith's over this if given a choice.
