My grading scale

It is subjective, but I think you'll be able to understand where I'm coming from:

1-3 "Horrible" : NEVER BUY THIS!!!! (Or buy it just to see what crappy beer tastes like.)

4-5 "Ok" : These beers need a little work. Usually from a company known for another type of brew.

6-7 "Good": It's ok, for now.

8-9 "Great" : Try this at least once, you'll be happy you did :D

10!!!!! "Godly" = This is attainable, but the most subjective of all grades. If I ever give a beer a 10 it'll be because it blows your mind.

Hoppin' Frog Hoppin' To Heaven IPA

It's been awhile since I posted anything.  Been pretty busy with school and ALS.  Got this when I purchased 3 beers to try to bridge the gap between a wheat and a stout.  It's also a new beer for the store I like to go to, and I like that.  This beer is proud of their American ingredients and heritage.  Brewed in Ohio.

Look/Pour/Smell - Middle of the road carbonation, great amber/orange color, light frothy head.  The hops are there, but it's a little sweet. 

Taste - Mmmmm....it's got a great crisp hop, the malt is sweet in the background.  It would be a great "after I just cut the yard" type beer.  It has a light after taste which makes it really refreshing. 

Rating - 8
This is the IPA everyone should overshoot, and most don't.  It will not disappoint.  I look forward to more offerings from this brewery.
