3.75/5  rDev +2.7%
look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5

A: Deep amber coppery color with a decent sized head of foam that had good retention. Mild lacing in the glass. Medium levels of carbonation.

S: Sweet hops and citrus fruit, with piney overtones. A fresh biscuit and bread malty note was present, balancing things out nicely.

T: Very nice. Well balanced flavors of fresh, juicy grapefruit and hops combine with a pinewood note to contrast a doughy and caramel malt taste. Not overly complex, but simple, and right on the money.

M: Smooth, slightly crisp. A touch more carbonation would've really be nice. Goes down very easy, a real gulper. Nice.

D: Yep, this is my favorite from Brooklyn so far. Probably the best EIPA i've had. Recommended.

3.74/5  rDev +2.5%
look: 3.5 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.75

A: A dull but clear copper body with a chunky head.

S: Orange marmalade.

T: Very hop forward. Orange marmalade and resinous qualities. Has a harsh bitter snap. Burned toast is the malt character. It's quite harsh – not for sissies!

O: While not a bad beer it's a bit too agressive and not complex enough.

EDIT: It's listed as an English IPA but tastes extremely American to me.
