COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
BO’s “Extreme IPA” version of the Super IPA style is a particularly intense example. The caramel and toast flavors of the imported English crystal and pale ale malts combine with the mild fruitiness of the English yeast to provide the background upon which the immense doses of American Columbus, Cascade, Centennial and Simcoe hops are displayed. These flavors make it a great match with spicy dishes such as Buffalo Wings, Blackened Chicken sandwiches, and Black and Blue Burgers. BO’s Extreme IPA has a calculated ABV of about 11.0%.

Rastacouere (5919) - Montréal, Quebec, CANADA - JUL 28, 2005
Fuelic nose, very sweet and syrupy. Annoying unintegrated hops. Burning hay-like juiciness, sweet to the end. A bit like they had used dark malts in there, honeyish and syrupy. Hop juice finish, extremely grapefruity, piney and coniferous. Lots of bitterness, but less aromatics among the syrupy, thick, floral and fuelic dominants.
