Alchemist Heady Topper

Tap @ Blind Tiger. I am very impressed with this beer. Poured a slightly hazed orange-copper color with a small white head. A strong but very nice hop forward aroma. Citrus and pine. There was some sweet malt underneath but it does not distract from the hops :) The beer had a large hop flavor with citrus and pine mixed together. Mild to moderate sweetness with a hint of malt. Moderate bitterness on the finish helps give it a stiff backbone and balance. Semi-dry with a meidum body. Very nice.

Tap at BT. Hazy orange pour with a thin soapy, white head. CItrus and apricot in the aroma - pleasant wildflower type hoppiness. Stronger piney/grassy component than I expected in the flavor. Nice green finish and the alcohol is well hidden. Great beer overall.

Tap at Bling Tiger. Big hoppy aroma and fierce oregano and basil. I seem to be the only one that tasted those, but taste them I did. Even more in the flavor, especially the Oregano, like walking into a pizza parlor. Works as a very nice compliment to the hops. Palate is thick and really not that bitter considering the IBUs. Enjoyable.

Draft at BlindtigerOne of the best double ipas I’ve ever had. The flavour was unbelievable, big juicy flowery hops, well balanced with a good dosage of malts. the hop character is absolutely genius. citrus, flower grass, pine, none to overpowering. and such good mouthfeel really juicy hop flavour.

Draft at the Blind Tiger. Nice orange pour, with a thin white film on top. Aroma is pine hops, lemon rind, and citrusy hop oils. The flavor is the same, oily and resiny mouthfeel and good bitterness. There is a lot of citrus in the end, and good malt throughout.
