Style | ABV
English India Pale Ale (IPA) |  5.90% ABV

Availability: Year-round. bottle (335), on-tap (32), growler (1)

Notes:
Real India Pale Ale (IPA), as it was first brewed in the days of the British Empire, was not the carefully filtered brew that we call IPA beer today. The first IPAs were unfiltered and featured extra hops and higher strength as a preservative for the long trip from England to the colony of India. Our Traditional IPA ale is naturally carbonated, dry-hopped & unfiltered like the old days.

3.8/5  rDev +5%
look: 4.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

Poured into a glass mug.

A: Slightly hazy golden yellow with two-finger, white, frothy head that lasted a long time. Great lacing.

S: Floral and citrusy.

T: Light sweetness and moderate bitterness. Toasted malt and hops. True to style.

M: Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Smooth and refreshing.

O: I thought this was a pretty good English India Pale Ale. Looks really nice, has a nose that improves as it warms, and has a really smooth mouthfeel.

Serving type: bottle

3.69/5  rDev +1.9%
look: 3.75 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.75

A clear golden orange in color with a thin offwhite head. Aromas of fresh honey and citrus rind. Taste is a perfumy sweet flower flavor up front, then some water cracker, then a lemony, minty hop finish. Mouthfeel is good. Overall a nice ipa that I would get again.

Serving type: on-tap

3.64/5  rDev +0.6%
look: 3.5 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.5

On tap at jamian's in red bank. Arrives in a long trail pint glass. Copper color, no head. I Aroma is Decently earthy hoppy, appropriate for an English style ipa.

Flavor is a well balanced malt hop mix with a faint buttery aftertaste. Nothing too exciting going on, but enjoyable. Mild lingering bitterness. Overall a pretty decent offering but nothing I'd go out of my way to order again. Would prefer more hop flavor.

Serving type: on-tap
