Pours a deep amber, slightly hazy, with a huge tan head that stays forever. Smells great as it pours, too. Nice and grassy, with the malt present, but clearly secondary.
This is very similar to Great Divide's barleywine, just scaled back as an IPA should be. Big grassy bitterness with a nice, smooth body and with the malt providing more body than taste. Not sweet, it's slightly sharp.
Very nice beer. I'm glad to see that they're thinking through this and their stout more than their regular offerings. This is probably the best IPA in Texas, in fact.
