Another great Ontario craft beer; light but very nice — 7 years ago
Very rare for me to rate US craft beer, but this Pizza Port Ale is outstanding. Best local beer I have tasted in San Diego in a long time. Clean and crisp. No crazy ingredients, what a surprise. — 5 years ago
Re-review of this classic landmark beer, why? New label, new description on label, this was and still is such a important beer in the craft beer Community, brewed since 1997 and still stands as one of the best IPA' s in the world, Centennial, Chinook and Magnum hops give it that classic base of West Coast IPA, that started the whole IPA movement in other beers and breweries, this was the beer that set the stage for what is now the great IPA 's in the west and east coast, such a monumental and important beer, The influence cannot be understated, still as I said, it holds its place as a great beer today — 9 years ago
My first introduction to Santa Fe Brewing was a couple years ago on the West Bank (Harvey, not Hebron) by the best homebrewer I know. I had never experienced a Black IPA, and it was an eye-opener. Since that experience, I’ve come to understand that Santa Fe Brewing Co. is not only the first craft brewery in New Mexico, they’re also the state’s oldest brewery, and in fact, they’re now even the largest brewer in state.
The 7K IPA started as a seasonal beer, but was recently added to Santa Fe’s year-round repertoire, and deservedly so. The name references the elevation of Santa Fe (the city and the brewery). It is, indeed, an elevated, modern-styled, West Coast influenced, IPA. Enormously aromatic, with hoppy pine and citrus peel, followed by a juicy and tart white grapefruit. The mouthfeel is extraordinarily smooth, especially when you consider the abv is 7.0% — 7 years ago
The FSB from Freewheel is as good as it gets. They draw their growlers from the hand pumped cask, and five days later it is still on top form. Nutty & bracing, a special bitter in more than name. In a world full of "craft" beer full of marshmallows and fermented in Islay barrels, this stands out. This doesn't reinvent the wheel, it is a better wheel. — 9 years ago

Country winner 🏆 for Ireland 🇮🇪 - World Beer Awards 2021.
O'Hara's (Carlow Brewing Co.) is a craft brewery upping their game with this stout. Nitrogenated making it creamier and smoother.
Fantastic coffee aromas with light liquorice notes.
