Commercial Description:
Great Divide brews Titan IPA for hop disciples -- independent beer drinkers seeking out robust, flavorful beers characterized by their abundance of hops, flavor, aroma and bitterness. As a big aggressively-hopped India Pale Ale, Titan IPA fills this bill -- beginning with piney hop aromas and citrus hop flavors, and finishing with a rich, malty sweetness that is carefully balanced with crisp hop bitterness. 65 International Bittering Units (IBUs).

Hazy amber with a good off-white head. Sweet fruit doughy and something strange in the aroma. Palate is a bit sticky for an IPA. Not as good as rated.

well, I thought I was a hophead, but I found this to be a bit...unbalanced. the hop character just seemed a bit harsh and there wasn’t enough malty goodness to back it up.

From tap at Ĝlbaren. Pours clear and orange with a light tan and creamy head. Dry and wet woody hops aroma. Lemonish initial flavour with a delicate hops base. Mild caramel malty flavour beneath. Mild woody and toward breadish dry malty. Light lemonish hoppy finish with a delicate bitterness into an almost fragile finish.

Bottle. Pours amber with a medium white head. Very fruity and floral aroma with piney hoppy notes. Very bitter and citric flavour with peachy notes. The malt is present as well. It ends up very bitter which is a bit too much. Overall its great.

12 oz bottle. intense hops. Piney. Maybe a touch to much bitterness. This is good but i’ve had better IPA’s.

Wow, I think Two Hearted ruined my IPA experience. Unfortunately this one completely pales in comparison. Nothing interesting about it. Just mellow with some hop character. A generic IPA. Bummer.
