Hi.P.A. is a medium-bodied groove with a fresh and fruitful nose of tympanic temptation. It begins and ends with a big hop bite that is itself forever balanced on the brink by a steady rhythm of malt. Dry-hopped for extra quenching in the face of heat and beat, it's an ideal accompaniment to chilling out, turning inward or sailing onward through the music of the night toward the dawn of the mind. It's the liquid way to say be here now lest you never come this way again.

    I had this beer while outside slow cooking ribs on my porch. A tasty and refreshing beer. I would say this skews towards the citrusy hop bill but some piney notes are present.

    Part of the IPA on Tour series. This could my least favorite of the tour stops. Reminded more of a #9 with some hops added, or kind of pale ale-ish. Not quite an IPA for me,...call it a light one.....very East Coast. Cloudy yellow appearance. Needs more malt and hops, at least more hops. Balance slightly off. It is drinkable and a decent dinner pairing, just not an IPA that I will seek out in the future.

    This was a very cloudy IPA , no doubt bottle conditioned.Mostly straw in color, had good carbonation. Picking up lots of corn taste, no alcohol detected- ok beer. I may have gotten an older beer.

    Darker yellow with white foam head, lacing to glass. Aroma is hoppy, taste is a solid bitter IPA with a crisp bite. Long lasting bitter aftertaste with some fruit tones. (Houston 201208)

    poured a nice golden color with a nce white heat that stuck around for a while, leaving a nice lacing. The aroma consisted of hops but had a nice sweet fruity undertone. The taste doesn't quite live up to the aroma with the over powering hops and with citrus and pine and the bitterness is only slightly tempered by the malt.

    This is not a beer that is worth trying again. One of the many entries in the overcrowded India Pale Ale category with a slightly citrusy aroma, and a weak hop bite in the taste. Maybe a good introduction to an IPA lifestyle, but certainly there are better out there.

    Got this out of the mix pack. Nice golden pour with a thick white head. Aroma of hops, malts, citrus. Kind of sweeter smell. Taste has a decent amount of hops, citrus, and a little bit of some sweetness that is followed up with some bitterness. A decent IPA out of this mix pack.

    Poured a deep golden color with a nice head that disappread slowy and great lacing. plenty of citrus aroma and flavor. Not as bitter as most IPA's that I have tried.

    A deep golden colored beer. A really big, creamy textured, white head rises above and offers decent hang time. The lacing is really impressive. Thick film aside the glass and thick ringlet and billowy clouds atop the body. The nose is light. Some malt, some citrus fruit. The tasting is more dominate with an acetic citrus up front. The body is light and crisp. Okay, just not worthy of a WOW rating.

    Great beer, so glad i got to try this one with BRando. Pours a bright orange colour. Floral, citrusy, noticeably piney with resin notes. Aroma is grapefruiy with a nice balanced mild hop finish. Fairly mellow, but full flavoured taste.
