I like a lot of Arcadia products. They are generally well crafted ana a joy to drink. This IPA is no exception. It could be a bit more aromatic, and it isn't as clear as you might like, but all that may be from making it what they made of it - a flavorful IPA that neither bores nor overwhelms.

It has a nice unique, refreshing taste. One could easily drink a lot of these, and I recommend everyone to do so.

look: 3.75 | smell: 3.25 | taste: 3 | feel: 3.25 | overall: 3.25

Appearance: a light orange color with nice clarity. a generous 2+ finger off white head that hangs around for a bit.

Smell: hops, hard to tell the kind, a grassy and graininess that seems out of place

Taste: strong hops, followed by an odd grassiness that tastes a bit grainy. Thats the only way to describe it; it is an odd slightly off taste

Mouthfeel: overly bitter, could use more carbonation

Overall: Arcadia falls a bit short for me most of the time. I wish i knew if the beer i was drinking from them was fresh but of course no freshness date to be found

Bottle > Pint Glass
A - Pours a decent gold color, shy of a finger head, nice lacing.
S - Pine, grassy and earthy scents up front, some toasted grain and malt, little traces of citrus fruits.
T - Taste follow the aroma almost exactly, pine and grassy hop flavors, with a lighter malt base.
M - Medium thin, and bitter hops hang on, clean and dry finish.
O - A drier English IPA, but its very clean and crisp. Nothing too exciting, but decent.

look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.75

Poured into a standard pint glass, color is copper, head presented nicely, dense and about 1/2" thick.

Smell is crisp, clean malt, light toast and caramel, hop is a mostly pine, hints of grapefruit.

Taste is pale malt sweetness upfront, clean flavors, light caramel note but not over sweet; hop bitterness is pretty strong, hop flavor is grassy, piney.

Mouthfeel is solid in the EIPA style, crisp, solid malt flavor, solid lingering bitterness.

Overall, a quite solid EIPA, good clean malt flavors and subdue hop presence with strong bitterness.
