Poured from a bottle into a dogfish ipa glass. Dark Amber pour with a thick one finger head with medium lacing. Aroma has lots of malt with a hoppy coat. Some earthy floral notes too. Taste is a uniquely hot hoppy beast with a lot of brown sugar caramel sweetness from the intense malts. Not too bitter, I’d say with some time the malts actually take over. Pretty smooth and airy mouth feel. Great example and introduction for someone just getting into IPA’s

Lendária Imperial IPA da Dogfish Head, considerada por muitos como a melhor IPA dos EUA! Cor âmbar, com boa formacao de espuma, com aroma herbáceo intenso e duradouro. No nariz, ainda se sente notas do malte, como pao e grãos. Na boca, desce com ótimo corpo, na frente liberando o dulçor da enorme quantidade de malte, equilibrando perfeitamente com o amargor do lúpulo que vem em seguida, Dry Hopped ao extremo. Uma porrada de amargor, muito bem balanceado! Notas de pao, manga, grapefruit, álcool. Final seco, alcoólico e amargo. Excelente breja!

Pour is clear golden amber with a nice fruity citrus hop. Taste is more malt than hop. Hop notes are mango and sweet citrus. Mouthfeel is medium with a slightly oily texture. Overall very good.

12 oz. bottle into a snifter. I just really started to drink DIPA’s on a regular basis over the last year and finally had to rate this one. Very aromatic grapefruit, pine and caramel. Light floral notes. The flavor starts mostly with bitter grapefruit. It also a very strong malt component that has a sweet flavor caramel and cracker type taste. The finish is a bit of pine and some more grapefruit. Medium leaning on full body, syrupy texture, lively carbonation without much of the ABV showing. Decent balance even if the texture is on the syrupy sweet side. Overall a pretty remarkable brew.
