It's a good solid IPA, not too bitter and nothing fancy. Harpoon IPA is a good middle of the road beer. The mouthfeel is medium with loads of carbonation. The hops present a burst of grapefuit and a hint of pine. The taste is initially bitter but the malty backbone takes the edge off quite nicely. The aroma is a mellow combination of citrus and pine.
