This was one of my first true IPA loves. I compare almost every IPA I try to this as the bar to beat. It has amazing citrus and floral notes both in the nose and the taste. It's ABV is well masked and is extremely drinkable. With all the hyped IPAs out there, this beer is a constant reminder that just because it is very available does not make it any less of an awesome beer.

This is a smooth, well balanced IPA. it presents itself with a clear amber/orange color. Inside my 22oz. glass, it has a very pleasant citrus aroma. Very good mouth feel. Good amount of bitterness without being overpowering. This IPA would be a solid introduction to those who are new to this style.

A: very nice dark golden color

S: hops to the brain. nice smell for an IPA

T: I'd like more bite from the hops

M: Head retained well and laced nicely. I enjoyed swigs and sips with this beer

O: A decent high grav IPA for any night. More kick expected but it would be a nice IPA for the daily indulger

This is probably the best $ value IPA on the market. It has the the hops content and lingering mouth feel we all want, but is not overpowering on the palate or the wallet.
appearance --> love that lacing!
smell --> makes me want to drink it fast
taste --> makes me want to drink it slow, and enjoy it
mouthfeel --> like beer should be... absolute pleasure
overall --> When I can find it, this IPA is in my fridge. There seems to be a supply issue.

sorry, but i don't understand the positive reviews of this beer. it has a very one-dimensional flavor that is downright annoying after the first beer. too much citrus, too much sweetness, i say use your money on some good stuff... apparently i am 20 characters short of a review. Oh - not any more... But I still don't see this as a B+ beer on this website. As an example, Harpoon IPA, which is a flat B, is far superior to this mojo.

look: 3.5 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5

Appearance - One finger of head, nice lacing down the glass, dark orange, hazy

Smell - Nice mix of citrus and pine, detect some malt in the background, nice balance

Taste - A nice mix between malt and hops. Obviously hop's in the forefront. Doesn't make you pucker, nice, easy drinking. Nice balance

Mouthfeel - Not too thin, good body, not overly carbonated

Overall - Nice IPA, had one in my fridge thanks to a friend, but wouldn't necessarily seek out again.

One of my favorite citrus style IPAs. I'm slightly biased as beers with centennial hops are always my favorite.
A- light bodied and pale in color. Head retention was good and really trapped in the hoppy taste of the beer.
S- Nothing over powering but you can get a hint of citrus.
T- a light citrus style. Hops for sure over power any malt characteristic but you can really taste the centennial hops.
O-Great beer, great brewery would recommend it to anyone just starting to drink IPAs as its not the most intense beer of the style but still has enough hop to satisfy the hophead in me.

Uneven quality control detracts from consistency of the lace... when it's good the head stays "one finger" down, the glass is coated always, and aroma develops into world class range. When it's less than good, things obviously slip.

When this brew is on it is fantastic and utterly unique. IPA fiends like me appreciate the bold venture that this brew represents and hope other brewers will contribute to this burgeoning IPA variant.

A word about IPA "styles": who the hell knows what an "IPA" is these days. And that alone says a lot about the greatness of the style.

Someone told me that if I Like big hop beers I need to try Hazed and infused by boulder beer. When I went to buy it the Mojo IPA was next to it so I bought a 6 pack of each. I have sampled 100's of different IPA and for me this one always stands out. Great full body hops yet very drinkable. After First having it by the bottle I now keep it on tap at home in my kegerator.

The Mojo India Pale Ale brought by the Boulder Beer Company was pretty good. I am a large fan of IPA's myself and after buying a six pack, 12 FL. Oz. bottles, of these puppies, I decided to give them a try. I have had Boulder Beer Company's infamous Hazed & Infused before and thought it, too, was pretty decent, so I decided to try the Mojo. Mojo bared a initial sweet taste on my palate and finished with a mildly bitter taste; I could taste notes of citrus as well as potentially notes of a piney hint, a decent beer. Mojo also had a great lacing. Overall, I would say this is a good IPA, but if not for the price. If you wish to get a good IPA in the state of Illinois, ridiculously high alcohol sales tax- $8-10, I suggest getting Flying Dog Ale's Snake Dog IPA, it registers in at a 7.1% ABV, 1% lower than the Mojo and has, overall, a better appearance and taste.
