12 oz can

Pours a deep amber gold, off-white head retains as a film.

Smells of piney hops and bready malts.

Bready malts with a mild citrus zing and a dry, piney hop bitterness in the taste. A hint of grapefruit bitterness as well and something I can't place, maybe something a herbal.

Medium body with a sharp stinging carbonation on the tongue, a little softer on the roof of the mouth.

Interesting and flavorful IPA, has a weird off taste that I'm not sure is supposed to be there, but its minimal. Despite that, I'd actually describe it as tasting very fresh. Worth trying, but I have had better IPAs. I will probably have this again just to see about the strange taste element I'm getting.

Had at Wegmans in Collegeville in a can.

Drank straight out of the can.
Scent of pineyness and citrus minimally, with hops essence.

This had a quite dry enjoyable flavor that lingered in the back of the tongue.
A slightly thinner mouthfeel is probably the only major negative about this, but it wasn't so unpleasant as to deter me from enjoying.

Sly Fox brewery is near where I live so i Know this is fresh. I've actually had it on tap years ago and recall really liking it back then too.

Good solid American IPA in the repertoire of Sly Fox.

Another random Sly Fox grab in Philly.

A- Poured from the can into a pint glass with a dark orange body. A really big creamy white head forms to about four fingers in size and retains very impressively. Eventually it all falls to a thin cloud but a thick ring leaves ample lacing down the whole glass.

S- Malt jumps out at me first because I am not used to sensing much in IPAs anymore. Caramel and slightly toasted sweetness to the grains. Hops here are mostly grassy, spicy, floral, herbal and pine. It takes on a slightly English feel to me.

T- Again, a pretty fair amount of balance going on which brings up the semi-taboo label of "East Coast IPA." Hops bring a pretty strong profile of grassy, herbal, floral, pine and spicy hints to me, like European hop strains. I do notice a fair amount of lemon zest and citrus like grapefruit here, this gets stronger with each sip. Malts and yeast bring on a balance of caramel, toast, nutty hints, dark fruit and some bread.

MF- Lighter overall body with a slightly creamy feel. Moderate amount of carbonation and a silky feel. Fairly bitter finish.

Fairly solid IPA that I had to adjust to because of it's hop profile. Among the citrus bombs of today there are still some IPAs that don't only use hops named Amarillo and Simcoe.

Can poured into a pint glass.

This beer's appearance is a a dark amber color similar to that of a Hop Devil. The head is nice and fluffy off-white and lingers for quite a while. The aroma is only slightly hoppy with hints of a metallic trace and some candy sweetness filling in the aroma as well. An average, or slightly less than average, smelling IPA. The flavor is quite bland and not at all very hoppy for an American styled IPA. There is a weird and strange fruitiness present in this beer that I usually don't detect in American IPA's. The flavor initially is slightly bitter and then this gives way to a rather unusual candy like flavor that lingers throughout the middle of the flavor process. The ending is rather bitter, but the bitterness available doesn't ride to well with the flavor that the beer presented. The longer I drink this beer...the more it seems to grow on me as I reach the bottom of the glass. The flavors seem to be melding together better. The MF is an average, lighter bodied ale. Overall, this is a decent American IPA. I have had much better, but I have also had much worse.

A: Long lasting lace with bits on the sides of the glass. Dark orange.
S: Nothing distinct. A little sweetness from the hops
M: Burns on the tongue long after the swallow. Not acidic.
T: Peppery grapefruit with fire from alcohol. Candy like in ways but never overly sweet. A bit like Razzles candy.

O: I've gotten this in cans on several occasions. It's not as balanced as say a SN Torpedo, but it's raw and tasty. Made several of my non BA friends make a face and pass the cup when sampling.
