Cons
    This is NOT an IPA

* Bright copper-amber colored, with short, dense beige head.

* Rich malt nose is caramel-toffee aroma backed by fruity esters.

* Fruity-caramelly entry expands with toasty malt flavor.  Hop bittering challenges malt at midtaste.

* Finish is palate-coating malt flavors offset by resiny hop bittering on tongue.

* Body is medium-full; carbonation is downplayed.

Synhopsis:

This beer is very complex and palate-challenging -as well as palate-pleasing.  It isn't, however, a great example of the IPA style.  IPAs are generally hop-dominated from aroma through the finish, and this one is definitely malt dominated. 

I suggest disregarding the label and drink it for what it is -enjoyable!
