Medium sourness, interesting and pleasing but not complex. Light acetic notes but mostly a lactic/milky type of sour. Says dry hopped but not sure I'm getting a lot of hop aroma here at all.

Semi-sweet, light caramel flavors. Low bitterness. Pretty simple, would like to see some depth to the malt profile, but it was a perfectly drinkable beer.

Dry and mildly bitter, with herbal hops that are reminiscent of Fat Tire, but with a fresher stronger profile. Bitterness has a mineral-esque element reminiscent of blood, weird but its not bad. It was weird at first because their other IPA had such low bitterness that this one seemed super bitter in contrast, but once you adapt you realize its just a regular level of bitterness like beers used to have.

Highlight of the lineup, real bright citrus and tropical fruit hops. Very nice low to medium bitterness. Clean semi-dry profile, I think the wheat in it works well here. Not sure what that years contributes though unless some of those fruit elements I thought were hops were also coming off the yeast?

Hazy IPA that almost wants to be a regular IPA and that's not a bad thing. Its juicy, but also crisp which doesn't mean anything but sorta does. Citrus hop flavors, low but detectable bitterness.

Reddish color, nicely sour with mild cherry and a big wack of lime juice sourness. Semi dry. Made me say wow, so I'd say this was a nice surprise, kinda wasn't expecting to like it.

Peppery hops, not very bright but definitely there with a resinous flavor. Fairly alcoholic profile, ventures into semi-sweet territory. Drinks a big like the old american strong ale category with that heavy body and resinous hop profile.

Like Aurelius said, mine was a clear bright gold so I wonder if this might be a crystal weizen. Not that it matters. Its yeasty and brightly phenolic, with plenty of clove and a bit of banana. Normally I hate overly phenolic beers but I felt this was well balanced with a zesty wheatiness.

Maybe a stab at Iron City clone? I could see it. Very pale, and very light. There's just a hint of diacetyl in this though, so not a clean lager. I could drink this more, would drink esp if they cleaned up the diaqetyl, but it remains a pretty neutral beer, but sometimes that's just the thing. Do I detect a very mild spicy hop?

Golden to amber, nice head. Touch of chill haze. Big citrus nose leans orange rind heavy. Also real fresh tangerine notes. Very nice hop profile in the flavor too - citrus and resin. Bready malts. Clean fermentation. Semi dry finish and a medium level of bitterness. Just a really good IPA, especially for sitting outside the brewpub on a warmish summer afternoon while a light rain falls around you.
