12 oz. bottle, another trade from douglas88. Lot of floaties swirling around the bottle. Foam pushes out the neck upon opening, Cloudy copper with a thick whitish head. Smells like a clean beer, with hints of leafy hops. Taste brings out nice fruitiness from both the ale fermentation and the IPA hops. Very light syrupy taste clings to mouth after sipping, but charged with more hop goodness. Feels like it should be more acrid and puckery, but that’s only to tease you. Definitely in the English style of IPA, and with hops still fresh enough to make their mark. This was a fun find.

Courtesy of Degarth. Pours clear watery gold with bright white head. The aroma has floral and spice noble hops along with faint caramel malts. The taste has a quick hit of spice hop bitterness that flows into mild floral hops before the whole experience is de-railed by thin watery insipidness. Midway and to the finish mild hop notes surface. It has a nice sessionable sense and the flavor has really been growing on me.

Big thanks to Degarth for scoring me an IPA rating and also my first Utah rating!! Pours a clear deep gold with lasting off white foam ring. The aroma is full with both spicy and floral hops definitely showing off that it is an English version of the style. There is also a base malt sweetness just detectible behind the hops. Just like the aroma the spice and floral hop bitterness hit right off and helped along by the carbonation. Then a more citrus lemon tartness enters the picture to smother the brief up welling of malts sweetness. The finish and aftertaste are occupied by mild lemon tartness and spice like hoppiness.

12 oz bottle from Utah State Liquor Store in Salt Lake City; wasn’t on draft at brewpub; nose of light citrus hops and peaches; pretty clear orange with a medium orangish-beige head; flavor of some hoppy bitterness and some light fruitiness and sweetness. Not a typical American IPA! Maybe a Hefe-IPA?
