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).

Best IPA I have ever had. Strong strong fruity hop flavor with just enough malt balancing to not overpower the hops. Great hop aroma with tight lacy pale head. Great beer.

This is really a very nice IPA. The Titan pours with a creamy carmel tan head that persists throughout until the glass is empty. It has a little bit hazy appearance. This beer has a very nice aromatic almost terpenoid hop aroma. Wonderful, well balanced taste. Just the right amount of bitterness and aromatic hop flavors. Very full, creamy palate. This is truly a first-rate IPA- as good as it gets! The nice part is that the Titan IPA is also reasonably priced when compared with other top-notch IPA’s so that you can afford to drink one every day.

Wonderful piney hop aroma. Dark copper color, a bit darker than most IPA’s. The citrus hop flavorwelcomes the taste buds initially and an even sweetness hits the back of the mouth leaving a great after taste. Very surprised it only rates a 65 on the IBU scale. Definitely a top of the line agreeively hopped IPA.

Visited the brewery in Denver and had a great time with Bernie, one of the brewers. Nothing like a great friendly brewery! Reddish-orange with a a massive foamy head. Nice orange blossom aroma. Stark hop/grapefruit flavors. Beautiful hoppy beer.

What a kick ass IPA this turned out to be. Totally unexpected..after having some of the so called "better" IPA’s out there. Very well balanced. Color was Deep, dark gold, you cant see through the other side of glass. Aroma is sweet chocolates, malts and strong hops. Flavor is malts, perfect amount of hops, but has a chocolately/caramel sweetness that tops it off amazingly. Silky smooth texture, that finishes not long..but not short..somewhere in between..like I said, balanced. This beer should not be underestimated. THANK YOU GREAT DIVIDE!
