It seems to be more sour than bitter with strong malt aftertaste. Maybe my taste buds just prefer the American versions. I purchased this at the Express Stop in Bowling Green, OH.

Bought at total wine and more July 4th eeeekend. Aroma is mostly malt and alcohol even though it's just 5%. Taste pretty good, not your American ipa. More malt forward but has an earthy aftertaste. Eh okay but wouldn't buy again.

Really good IPA. balanced. Less hoppy.

I would have another

Not overly hoppy (IBU guess of 40ish), great malt flavour, and great balance. Best IPA I've had to date

Surprisingly sour for an IPA - not the American style
Low bitterness for IPa hops more fruity than bitter
Not much character but I liked Belgian-iPa mix idea
Unpleasant smell

Nice hop aroma. Malty. A good English IPA

Delicious! The first AUTHENTIC ENGLISH IPA I've had. Nothing like the hopped up and bitter American cousin. Fruity and hoppy- very nice. Enjoying Christmas Eve 2015 at Michael's. An eye-opening delight.

Definitely not the Americanized IPA - light fruit flavors come through with delicate yeast and hop aromas to create a smooth complexity that could easily be indulged in for multiple glasses!

As I'm acquiring a taste for hoppy IPA's, this one is very subtle.
