A big, mouth-watering IPA, brimming with all the flavors and aromas of the new breed of hops coming from Australia and the Pacific Northwest.

Thought this was a DIPA and poured it into a tulip, woops, next time in a pint glass.
The appearance was a nice looking hazy amber to orange color with a slim white foamy head that dissipated within less than twenty seconds. Barely any lacing stuck or even showed.
The smell had bittersweet citrus hops with a light honey in the background.
The taste was bittersweet through citrus elements of sticky fresh hops. It has a nice lingering sweet sticky aftertaste and fresh sweet finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fairly decent sessionability about it. The carbonation was somewhat subdued and carried a decent harshness to the feel.
Overall, I say this was a pretty good AIPA that I would have again.

12oz bottle from Wegmans, Buffalo, NY. A slightly hazy amber pour with a loose soapy looking white head; subdued tropical fruit aroma; slightly muddy tropical fruit taste at first, but developing a stronger woody bitterness before an alcohol lead finish. Rather unbalanced and muddy - but with the potential to be much better.

Bottle at home in CT. Pours clear gold with a foamy, off-white head. The nose has nips of melon, orange, pale bread. Medium sweet flavor with some gooey tangerine, light piney bitterness, bready pale malts. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Lightly warming on the finish, a little resinous, with more ripe and lightly gooey citrus fruits, oily pine. Good stuff.

Purchased on one of my trip to Vermont. Pours a very slightly hazy amber colour with a big frothy-creamy warm cap, great retention and some very nice lacing. Aromas of the fresh hops, but well-balanced with some tropical fruits notes. Because of this, the taste is quite sweet at first, but finishes on a dry hoppy bitterness. The fruits are always present. Quite a nice IPA that is easy-drinking because of the mix of tropical fruits and hoppiness.

Buckets, Jenkintown bottle: Pours copper with a white head. Aroma is nice citrus, pine, and tropical fruit. Taste is nice and fruity. It be a little bit on the sweet side. Not too bitter. Very flavorful. Long Trail continues its come from behind excellent beers. Why is no one talking about Long Trail I asks you.

Bottle. Pour is kind of a dingy good with a fluffy white head and aromas of honey, oranges and soap. Flavor is soapy, floral and lightly citrus, but this IPA doesn’t have enough of a hope punch for my palate.
