The malts come through and complement the hops nicely and for 11% the alcohol is hardly noticeable. Full bodied mouthfeel with very light carbonation, very smooth. Good IPA that I would definitely have again.

I thought I'd celebrate Ted Stevens' 85th birthday - and defeat - with a bottle of Alaskan IPA.
It's a fine IPA with a hoppy taste that's not too overpowering.
To be honest, I'll sort of miss Ted, so I thought I'd close out with a quote from the internet genius himself: "I just the other day got, an internet was sent by my staff at 10 o'clock in the morning on Friday and I just got it yesterday. Why?
Because it got tangled up with all these things going on the internet commercially...
They want to deliver vast amounts of information over the internet. And again, the internet is not something you just dump something on. It's not a truck.
It's a series of tubes."

Brewed in Tarpon Springs (famous for its sponge divers) by 5 Branches Brewing, whose name references the five arms of the US military.
Old one I forgot put up. Solid IPA that I have revisited a few times. Great bitterness in this balanced IPA.

Founders Brewing Company - Grand Rapids, Michigan USA
IPA (ABV 7.2%) (IBU 65)
[Best served in a Shaker glass]
Rating: 4.0/5.0
Aroma: 8/10
Appearance: 4/5
Taste: 8/10
Palate: 4/5
Overall: 16/20
The pour was a murky dark amber with an average (1-2 finger) off white frothy head that reduced to a few puddles and a large collar of residue which created some excellent sheets of lace.
The aroma was of a floral hop, a toasted grain malt and an earthy yeast with notes of caramel, apricot and a good dose of citrus (lemon and grapefruit).
The taste was a light bitter sweet and a bit acidic with a nice malty feel and had notes of caramel throughout, then progressed into this nice hoppy flavor, that had just a tad of sweetness to it with notes of apricot and citrus at the end. The flavor hung around for what seemed like forever, which just increased the pleasure of the tasting experience.
Mouthfeel was right under medium in body with an extremely dry texture and a moderate carbonation.
Overall all I have to say about this brew is: "Now that’s an IPA"...

Fearless IPA is a hop forward India Pale Ale crafted with premium malts and hops from around the world. Zythos and Galaxy hops combine to provide a tropical fruit aroma while cascades and columbus provide a citrus-like bitter finish
I had a few of these the other day on the deck at Produce Row, a funky little bar in SE Portland.
I'll have to ask Bryce what it was.
Whatever it was, it was delicious. A nice, hoppy IPA with lemony hints - and a high alcohol content.
Of course, I didn't realize how tilted the table was... or was that me?
A decent, hoppy IPA. I guess I just can't get beyond how bad Magic Hat's "Number 9" beer is. For some reason, that really impaired my ability to objectively rate this beer. I wonder what I would have thought if it had been a blind test?
I used my brand-new, $9 reverse coupler to reverse-mount my 50mm lens in order to use it for macro shots.
Strobist: SB-600 and SB-800 on either side. The SB-600 was shot through a Lightsphere at 1/2. The SB-800 was shot through a white umbrella, at 1/32.
"Doing it right since 2014", it says on the label. Certianly seems good so far to me. A modern classic IPA. Brewed in Manchester, bought at High Peak Beers in Stockport.
This stuff has me a bit confused. According to my friend Wikipedia, "IPA is an ale that is light amber to copper in color, medium to medium-high alcohol by volume, with hoppy, bitter and sometimes malty flavor. IPA is a style of beer that is usually included in the broader category of pale ale."
This is not a bad beer, just a bad IPA. It's more like a slightly hoppy porter. It's heavy on the malts, with a boozy aftertaste (despite being fairly low in alcohol content).
Try it if you like porters and other malty brews, but don't expect it to taste like a real IPA.

Strobist: SB-600 below beer at 1/16. SB-800, with Lightsphere above beer at 1/2.
A bottle of IPA from AleSmith Brewing Company in San Diego, California.
This 7,25% abv India Pale Ale poured a hazy golden color with a tiny white head. Aroma was very hoppy with some grass notes. Flavor was bitter with a resinous finish. A bit one-dimensial in my mouth, some floral or citrus hops would have improved the overall impression. But this bottle may have been a bit old.
A dark, malty IPA. I don't think it has a high alcohol content, but the combination of hops and malt make it seem somewhat boozy tasting.
You should try this if you like complex, malty IPA's.
Ah hell, you should try it anyway!
