When American craft brewers got their hoppy hands on the India Pale Ale style, there was no looking back. Now there are more IPA trends than influencer skin care routines. Dale’s approach is to “keep it classic.”
This timeless American IPA is in the West Coast style - chock full of citrusy, herbal, and fresh pine notes that’ll renew your obsession with hops. Like a black t-shirt, it’s always in style.
Aroma is huge with pine, citrus and tropical notes. This beer has a medium body and the classic IPA bitterness. Well balanced. The hop flavor mirrors the aroma with the addition of a touch of stone fruit. Finishes clean and crisp.

This one dollar can from the singles rack at JR's pours clear pale with a big lasting foamy white head. Nose is strong green grapefruit. From a macro pale lager drinkers point of view, the taste of this is so blasted bitter. Its a rototiller across my tongue ruining my taste buds for an hour or two. The flavor is unpleasant disagreeable disgusting distasteful awful dreadful horrible terrible vile and unnecessarily foul. So yes, it is right on style and if you like IPA, you need to try this, if you did not already. Leaves such a bad medicinal taste in my mouth. Will somebody please get me an ice cold clean fresh non offensive american pale lager for a chaser? A sammy adams american light will do just fine, thank you.

Can sent for my comment. Clear straw/gold color, tall fizzy foam head. Smell is big with those advertised tropical fruits, citrus and pine. But when it goes into my mouth, all those exotic Pacific hop notes are gone. Just a nice big note of hop bitterness. Harkens back to the original days of American pale ales.

Canned 01/2025. Clear golden colour, medium-sized white head and lace. Light pine, fruits and citrus in the nose. Light to medium-bodied. Citrusy flavour, some fruityness, piney notes. Quite easy for its ABV. Old school. After 4,5 months already a bit after its peak I suppose.
