11th Hour IPA is an American India pale ale. The style is characterized by a prominent hop aroma with citrusy or resinous/piney character due to the use of American hops such as Cascade and Centennial. The appearance of 11th Hour IPA is a clear, golden color with a nice white head. This traditional American IPA has a moderate piney/citrusy hop flavor and medium-high hop bitterness that is supported by a malty backbone. This beer has a smooth, medium-bodied mouthfeel with no astringency. 11th Hour IPA is brewed with the finest quality pale ale malt with some caramel malt and Carapils added for color, flavor and mouthfeel adjustment. Centennial and Cascade hops are added to give this IPA its “pure hoppiness” quality. Original Gravity is 14.3°P and alcohol by volume value is 6.5%.

From notes at Great Nebraska Beer Festival. Aroma has a moderate amount of malt character with quite a bit of caramel and some cracker notes. Medium light pine resin and grapefruit hop notes with some grass present as well. Pours a clear, dark golden orange with a thick white head that shows quite a bit of retention. Flavor is similar to the aroma with quite a bit of malt character. Lots of cracker and biscuit with moderate caramel notes. Medium grapefruit and pine resin with some grass notes. Moderate bitterness. Mouthfeel is medium to medium full bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, I found this IPA to be too malty with a rather boring and somewhat grassy hop flavor. Oh well, I ticked South Dakota.

Recieved in trade.
The appearance was a clear golden close to a yellow colored body with a super thick one and a half fingered white foamy head. It rises a tad and drops at a nice pace yet it still maintains a decent level head for the most part, lacing is sporadic and clings all over the place - for the most part - its a nice show.
The smell has a nice piney and somewhat floral sort of aroma gracing my nose in a somewhat earthy/herbal sort of way.
The taste was sweet piney and floral-ness coming through and leaves no aftertaste but a slightly dry finish.
On the palate, it sat at/about a light to medium, hmmmm...sessionable - sure - I think I could see this with some pepperoni pizza. Carbonation is just right for an AIPA.
Overall, in my opinion, this is a good AIPA, well worthy of anyone who seeks it, nothing wrong with it however, there’s nothing spectacular either.

Can poured into a shaker. Pours a clear dark gold with minimal head. Aroma is mostly citrus with a hint of pine. Taste is medium bitter. Grapefruit and pine. Light bodied with a surprisingly watery texture. Lively carbonation and a decently long finish. Overall, not bad. Nothing really special here but drinkable and very enjoyable.

Can 35,5 cl. Courtesy of Skyview. Pours a clear amber with a tiny off-white head. Chewy, biscuity and caramellish malt aroma with a fresh touch of green hops. Medium body, sweet caramel and then again this solid dose of fresh, green hops leading to a bitter finish. No biggie for sure but actually very enjoyable - especially considering it’s not from a well renowned beer state at all. 230313

12 oz. can courtesy of Queenholly. Much thanks! Nose is pine hops and weak citrus undertone. Carbonation is slow and steady and produces a ¼ inch white head with fair lace. Transparent amber color. Taste is the same as the aromas with some fresh cut grass. Texture and body are light. Drinkable.
