Commercial Description:
This is an Imperial or Double I.P.A. Using double the amounts of malts and hops to create a very intense flavored ale. Using five different types of malts and six different types of hops created an ale with soft bitterness, tons of hop flavor and aroma balanced with malt sweetness. Cheers hops lovers!!

Sampled at Pints for Pets. Pours a slightly hazy amber color with a small foamy white head and a little bit of lacing. The aroma is a strong citrus grapefruit hops flavor. A little caramel in there to balance it out as well. The flavor is simply outstanding. Lot so juicy grapefruit. A little light on the body, but it is a really tasty IPA.

Draft sample at Pints for Pets. Pours orange golden with off-white head. Big citrus, floral nose. Big old bitter, balanced well, floral and citrus hop flavor. Great IIPA. Need more if it.

Growler. pours hazy amber, with a small off white head. Aroma is all hops; primarily piney, but with some citric character. Big hop flavor up front, well balanced with caramel malt. Long, resinous hop finish. Above average double IPA.

Draught at the brewpub. Pours cloudy copper with big sticky ivory head. The aroma is intense tangerine and pine, much like green pine needles, with a little bit of honey. The flavor is delicious sappy pine with a little bit of tangerine. The malt resembles Ritz crackers with a slight sweetness. Dry finish. Pretty impressive brew.

Sampled on draft this beer poured a copper-caramel color with a large yellow-white head. The aroma was strong pine and resin. The flavor was harsh, sweet and spicy with elements of pine, resin and grapefruit and a long piney finish. Excellent.
