Dripping with resinous hops, this IPA packs a surprisingly bitter punch, wringing every last west coast IBU from the recipe. The malts give a grainy, meek background, one barely noticeable in the face of such massive piney massiveness. Good nose, even with a hint of metallic ick. The texture isn’t that great-- the beer seems overcarbonated and spiky, too harsh when coupled with a sandpaper-dry finish. Good but one is plenty.

12 twist off bottle, purchased somewhere in Lake Okoboji, Iowa, enjoyed on the boat. Pour is a darker copper, mostly clear with a one inch light tan head. Aroma is resin, caramel malt and a pleasant earthiness. Taste is nice bitter, resin, touch of dank hops along with a significant caramel malt backbone. Clean. The palate is medium bodied, dry resinous finish. Nice one.

Bottle, smallish head, murky darkish orange colour, funky aroma of sour cabbage and sewer, strong overpowering vinrgar flavour leaving nothing behind. This brew is infected, real shame i don’t have another one to try.

Bottle, medium stable head with some lacing, very hazy peach orange colour, arpma of pine, herbs and citrus with breadiness backing up, floral hops flavour with some bread and a hint of honey. Balanced, satisfying IPA.

12oz. bottle. Hey,my Dad’s catching on, he’s putting stuff like this in his fridge. I’ve learned that Pre-Pro beers were first to use corn as an adjunct, but this one is all malt. And the malt shows up in the nose and taste. Light brown color of a Pre-Pilsener, too, reminded me of a Yuengling. Full on malt taste, with the spice of mainly German hops, followed by those piny American types. I may be rating this higher than others, but I think this is a fine "common" lager with no flaws.

Bottle. Beer of the month club. Clear golden with a white head. Aroma has some sour fruits, corny notes, some slightly citric hops notes and a decent malt character, a bit bready, with some graininess. Flavor has some sourness, light malty sweetness, citric notes and some mild bitterness. Light-medium-bodied. Sourness seems out of place, but it’s still aמ OK drinkable Lager.

Gold body that has a slight haze to it. Average sized whitye head that falls quickly. Light malt aroma, sweet corn and faint hops. A watery palate delivers a brew with little flavor. Some sourness. Effervescent.

Bottle. Beer of the month club. Hazy golden with a big frothy white head. Great aroma of citric, floral and slightly piney hops. Flavor is hoppy and grapefruity with some sweetish crisp malt in the background. Lingering citric bitter finish. Medium-bodied. A very good IPA.
