I really wanted to like this beer. I'm not sure why I wanted to like it - maybe because I remember hearing some good things about this brewery. I can't say this was a great introduction for me. For an IPA, it's a bit different than I expected. It has a malty smell, but a hop taste (kind of). The hop flavor isn't the hop flavor I'm used to - it's more earthy (less pine or crisp than what I expect). I wouldn't buy it again, but I will try some of their other offerings.
