On tap at the brewpub. Poured a slightly hazy orange/bronze with a nice white head on top. Aroma was pleasant citrus and grapefruit nose. Had a pretty smooth hoppy flavor however it was pretty subdued for being considered an Imperial. I guess it’s just for the higher alcohol content. Somewhat sweet with a medium body and smooth creamy mouthfeel. Actually a really good brew if not for me expecting to have a little more flavor and hope bite.

resinator seasonal @ 8.2% abv... wasn’t really sure of the style until now. it makes sense, though... beautiful color like toasty caramel before the cream is added. off white head and a small amount of lace. lots of fruity hops in the aroma remind me of fruit loops cereal... orange, pineapple, pink grapefruit, flowers, sweet grains, caramel/toffee and coriander. the flavor is quite similar with a dry lightly resinous bitter finish. skunky and dirty earthy hops in the aftertaste. medium body with a rich mouth feel yet crisp...

I was glad to see that this is listed as an IPA. I asked the waitress if it was doppelbock (based on the name) and she said that it was, but it is definitely more in the IPA vein. Medium tea-colored gold-brown with a thin clingy head. Fruity caramel AIPA aroma. Dry and woody. Alcohol bitter over dry hops, seedy, slightly briny.
