Single Wide IPA pours a hazy amber color with a big, frothy off-white head on top. The foam dissolves very slowly leaving behind a coating of netted lace on the glass.

The aroma has lots of orange and grapefruit citrus. However, the hoppy aroma fades fast and what remains are malty notes of caramel and pale malt.

Each sip of this medium bodied beer is creamy, with moderate carbonation. The flavor has some nice sweet caramel malt and fruity notes, but is dominated by orange and grapefruit citrus. It finishes bitter with lingering orange citrus and bitterness when gone.

This is an easy drinking, fairly well balanced beer that leans to the hoppy side.

Dated best by 8/10/13; poured into a tulip. Single-Wide is a stellar looking brew, hazy and gold with some noticeable, unfiltered goodness. Thick, creamy, cloud-like head with tons of lacing! Smells delicious once you open the bottle, but that seems to vanish as you drink from the glass. The taste and mouthfeel are really good, but not in the class of many other IPA's. Overall, very good and worth a try, especially for the price.

12 oz bottle dated BB 19 July 2013 served in a lager glass.
This bottle conditioned IPA pours with a towering, foamy/creamy, off-white head over a clear golden body with plenty of visible carbonation.

The aroma is the only weak point of this beer, with a marginally pleasant mix of yeast, light malts and earthy/floral/herbal hops. The more intense flavor has a different balance, being more hoppy and less yeasty, and seems more complex. The use of 6 varieties of hops is more apparent here, with fruity, floral, earthy, herbal and spicy elements. Nonethelss, this is not a strongly hopped, highly bitter, or challenging ale. Has the ease of drinkability of a pale ale.

Exceptionally smooth and creamy mouthfeel for an IPA.

Recommended!
