Old style taste with a great balance of hops and malt. It's good.

Tastes much more like a straight pale ale. I'm curious to know the IBUs. I have to believe it's on the absolute edge of what you can call an IPA. I'm betting it's right there at 40, far too low for a proper IPA. Otherwise, straight middle of@the road english pub ale if you ask me.
