This pours with a hazy, deep coppery color that supports a nice thick head that sticks to the glass as it falls. Flowery hop aroma with a touch of citrus. The bitterness comes right on and maintains itself right to the finish. No alcohol detected. Well done IIPA.

Pours beautifully... head is a little sudsy, but still nice and thick. Lacing is outstanding. Body is a nice copper color and aroma is hop heavy. Flavor is well-balanced. Hops mix nicely with sweetness that I wasn’t expecting.

Pour is a good looking orange with a nice white head. Aroma is very fruity with lots of grapefruit to go around. Flavor is dominated by strong malts with just a mild hop flavor. Not reallly a strong IIPA in the hops but it still has its qualities including the low price.

Rating #1100.
1100 isn’t such a big milestone, so an average beer will suffice. Slightly hazy amber body, thin/medium off-white head. Sweet, toasty aroma with earthy hops, similar to the pale ale I sampled before this. Sweet, cerealy body with hints of caramel, balanced by earthy hops, a tad watery. Again, a bit of a "hop tea" characteristic. Too similar to the pale ale.

Slightly hazy light orange body, medium-thick off-white head. Light piney, floral hops aroma with notes of toast and caramel. Floral hops body with hints of pine, balanced by biscuity malts. Has a "hop tea" characteristic. Hints of diacetyl in the finish, but nothing too distracting. Average, but, hey, that’s not repulsive.

Clear amber/light copper body, thin/medium buff head. Biscuity, earthy, piney aroma with hints of tropical fruit. Tropical fruit (pineapple, etc.) hop notes dominate the flavor profile, balanced by biscuity malts and more typical piney and grapefruity hops. Medium-bodied, sweet, and not too harsh. Solid.
