Truly great, hoppy, yet not bitter IIPA. Very refreshing. Lots of complexity, in the flavor characteristics, nice finish. Very well done.

Best IPA I have ever had, hands down, bar none.

Nice, well balanced ipa but nothing really special. Fruity and pleasant.

Finally, and fantastic. But not any better than some great hoppy beers we can actually get on the east coast. Bottle, Mollie & Clay's, Jan 2016.

A good champagne of an ipa. Complex and fruity but dry.

The finestIPA I have ever sampled. The flavor gets more complex the further into the sip you get and then finishes very crisp and smooth. 3.27.16 Having a bottle that was bottled on 3.15.16. Just as delicious as I remember.

I can't believe - preferred over Heady Topper

Nice piney IPA but limit consumption to two. The third will cost you.

Damn good. A lighter and fruitier version of an IPA. I think there are similarities to Heady, but much lighter hops and less alcohol taste even though it is an 8%. Lower carbonation surprisingly. Worth putting effort into finding.
