Forgot about this one in my fridge, from a trip in Vermont. Pours a hazy golden-orange colour with lots of sediments. Head is warm, a little on the creamy side with great stay and lacing. Fresh fruity hop aromas with a light Belgian ale yeast sweetness. Decent dryness and milder bitterness. More grassy, but still a little fruity in flavours. A pretty nice IPA.

Many thanks to Erzengel for sharing! A slightly hazy golden beer with a small white head. Aroma of mild tropical bitter fruits, tangerine. Taste of intense bitter citrusy hops, pineapple, tangerine, delicious!

Many thanks to pdog555 for this can! Fresh fruity and sticky piney nose. The beer starts fresh and floral. Lots of pine and resin, deep and nice fresh. Not too sweetish with a nice round body. Fresh hops, resin and lots of fresh and slightly sweetish floralness in the aftertaste over a nice smooth mild and easy-to-drink body. Very nice IPA. Easy to drink, aromatic and still deep.

16 ounce can. Hazy, yellow gold color. Frothy beige head. Fragrant citrus hop nose. Biscuit malt is quickly overtaken by the bittersweet citrus hop bombardment. Lime, grapefruit and tangerine come to mind. Boozy hints in middle. Slightly astringent peppery notes in finish.

Can from Harvest Market Cloudy golden orange in color with a good sized long lasting frothy white head. Citrus tropical fruit bread and a hint of tart toffee. Not bad but a hint too malty for the style.

Pours yellow-hazy with a thick head. Aroma is unremarkable but the flavor of this beer was pretty good. Unique and complex palate. Worth trying. I liked having an IPA that was on the lighter side.

Pours a hazy yellow with a minimal head. This was the first beer that I've had with Ella hops. Really liked them, they have a decent kick that blends well with the rest of the beer's palate.

Clear amber with minimal head. Tastes like orange creme. Kinda bizarre but not awful.

From the mixed 12 pack from hannaford. Slightly hazy dark straw with a good sized long lasting white head. Crackery bready malt with plenty of earthy pine and citrus. Pretty tasty IPL
