Drinking one of these right now, it's a delicious well made beer, however I agree it's not what I'd call an IPA. Probably closer to a robust porter or an Imperial Stout.

It poured a deep reddish brown, lots of fruit on the nose it pretty much tasted how it smelled. It was my first flanders I was expecting it to be more sour, it wasn't what I was...
