Description:
A hop lover's delight. In the India Pale Ale tradition this brew is very hoppy in both aroma and flavor from the generous amounts of cascade hops used in brewing. Look for a medium to full body and golden straw color.

Appearance - 4.0
Pours a nice copper color with 1 fingers worth of head that leaves a very nice amount of lacing. The heads very fluffy and sticks around for a good bit.
Aroma - 3.0
Has a very floral, hoppy aroma. Can also make out some citrus.
Mouthfeel - 4.0
Light to Medium Bodied beer with a good amount of carbonation and is easy drinking. Finishes dry.
Taste - 3.0
Slight citrusy flavor throughout, but the hops deffinetly dominate this beer. Finishes extremely bitter. Much hoppier that I expected for this beer.
Overall - 4.0
For it's price it is not a terribly bad IPA, nothing extroidinary though. It's very bitter, so hops heads would probably enjoy this. I liked it but wish it was a little more balanced with the hops.
