Commercial Description:
we've packed 100 IBU's of Cascade and Columbus hops into our Big Island Imperial Pale Ale for complex hop essence balanced by malt sweetness.It's our most robust offering yet-an ale like a promising breeze building on the sea of the palate.

This had a nice head on it.Color was a dark amber,almost brown.Aroma was of an inviting sweet caramel apple.It tasted of a hops filled bock style beer.I think it is a hybrid of a bock and an IPA.Pretty good beer.I will buy again. Nice sticky palate.finishes somewhat sweet and dry.
