Incoming! Alpha Ambush is a West Coast warrior for Hop Heads who truly love those little green cones. Bright and lively, it encircles the senses with dank notes of pine and citrus until the only option is surrendering to its juicy deliciousness. Captitulation never tasted so good!

Pours deep gold. It smells very hoppy. There’s tropical fruit and loads of pine in the aroma and flavor. Medium bodied. Long, dank, bitter finish.

Dank pine, grapefruit peel, lemon, and biscuit malt aroma. Slightly hazy golden yellow with large white head. Moderately sweet tangerine/mango, biscuit malt, and strong bitter dank pine and grapefruit peel flavor. Good body.

12 ounce can. Bright, honey gold color. Large, frothy white head. Aroma is redolent of pine and citrus. Flavor is a rush of decadent hops. Sweet, sticky citrus and dank pine. This brew reaches high on the hop meter. Dank and juicy. Peppery finish.

From a can. This stuff pours fairly clear pale. Nose is mild hop perfume. Taste is of course big bad bitter hops all over the place. Bot this for a tick since I don't like bitter straight up ass IPA. It was only a buck fitty at the beer place. Thanks for the tick and the buzz but no thanks for the taste, whew. Now I can't taste anything but bitter hops for a while. Will somebody kindly give me a cheap pale lager for a chaser?

Pour is a clear amber with a large white head. Aroma is piney dank hops. Flavor is again piney and dank with some red berry finish. Lots of bitterness on the finish I have not gotten from an IPA in a great long time. Nice old school IPA with plenty of bittering hops.
