Poured into a beer mug.

A: Pours a cloudy copper color that features a lot of yeast sediment floating around. The body looks a bit strange, but the head is nice. It's a three-finger, fluffy looking off white affair with fantastic lacing. I mean, seriously, the mug is coated with head (not THAT kind of head).

S: Smells more bready than hoppy to me. The aroma isn't great, but it's workable.

T: I would have never guessed by looking at the beer (har har), but this tastes surprisingly yeasty. The malty opening is there, the hoppy, grapefruity finish is there (albeit subdued), but I'm surprised at the yeasty taste of this. Not bad, just weird. Despite that, it's balanced pretty nicely.

M: The aftertaste is a little off...the sticky bitterness is there, but it doesn't have the satisfying tongue drying of, say, a Stone IPA. Carbonation is a little low.

O: Eh, kind of uninspired, but a good IPA starting block. Decent budget choice, but I'd rather spend a little more on something else.

Bought as part of Dundee's Ales & Lagers Seasonal Pack from Southtown Beverage on 4/26/13. Case price was $ 17.99.

poured from a 12 oz bottle into a pint glass. Served at cool Temp.

appearance: light amber with a three finger white head. excellent lacing.

aroma: citrus with some floral notes, some wintergreen also.

mouthfeel: thinnish..

taste: a malty IPA with some diacetyl. Candied orange, candied ginger, some mint.

notes: again, Dundee puts forward a decent beer that is not a generic clone of others in the style. I actually liked this one.
