This mammoth IPA is defined by generous quantities of juicy American hops. The extensive dry hopping process contributes to its bright and flavorful character. This beer is unfiltered to leave all the natural flavors intact and bottle conditioned to stay super fresh.

From Matt at 3R6P. Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a medium amber color with a trace white head that left a bit of lacing. The aroma was dryish, floral and a bit fruity. The flavor was bitter with notes of caramel, lemon, grapefruit, a bit of pine and a hint of perfume. The finish was medium length and dryish with light fruity and perfumey hops lingering. Medium body. Decent.

Big citrus, oh how I love thee. Three years and I’m still not tired of this awesome IPA. Plenty come close but nobody matches the citric-hop wonder that is Sweetwater IPA. If only the restaurants in Charleston would add IPA next to that 420 tap!!

Copper orange. Nice grass, light citrus, and pine notes running through this one. Kinda light for an IPA but its still real nice and refreshing. Id get it again.

bottle, pours a murky blond/amber with a medium white head. Aroma is grapefruit and hops with some sugar. Sweet malt, sweet/sour, and bitter hops. Really nice and drinkable with a variety of hop characteristics in the finish. Not bombarded by bitter which is nice. I like.
