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).

Pours a translucent orange amber with a thick foamy buttermilk-colored head. Has some decent lacing. A sweet brown sugar nose with a great dose of piny and floral hops. The hops and sweetness work really well in the aroma. The hops hit you in the face. Delicious. Starts with citrus, then finishes with a dirty floral hop flavor. Has a good caramelly sweetness in the background, but not terribly well-balanced. That doesn’t matter to me though. This is delicious. A very rich mouthfeel with a bitterness that lingers for quite some time on the tongue.

Golden amber pour. off white head leaves slight dissipates. piney hop aroma, slightly bitter. citusey, bitter hop tastes. Not bad, drinkable, a bit unremarkable.

golden pour, but with a nice frothy head. aroma is almost exclusively hops with woody hints. Flavor is straight IPA, but really well done- hops are well balanced. hops stick to the tongue nicely. Extremely drinkable, really tasty.

I was REALLY disappointed in this beer. Like several before me, I was expecting a hoppy beer. This beer was bland and tasteless considering the label. Overall not a bad beer, but when you are expecting something similar to Hopslam or 90 min IPA, its a let down.

Deep amber with one inch cream color head. Floral hop aroma, some pine. Taste is a blast of grapefruit rind, pine needles, resins. Some sweet malt but hard to find. Here is an IPA that is just too bitter for me. I give! Bottled the 4th week of February.
