Commercial Description:
At the height of the heat in the heart of the summer, we felt that the only cure was a raging mouthful of fresh hops and malt. Caution: May remove enamel from teeth. This is Lagunitas IPA pumped up by about 30%!

Lagunitas Maximus IPA Pours an orange-amber color, fizzy white head. Aromas of apple, pear, hops. First sip reveals more pear, sour blueberry, lingering and savory hops.

Wanted to try this, especially given the price (nice and cheap). Poured a nice golden color. Taste is light tropical and citrus. Fairly light flavor for a double IPA. Very drinkable.

I will call this one the Workin’ Man’s IPA since the price is usually about 3.99 for a 22oz. Can’t go wrong w/that! Good hoppy IPA for the HOPHEAD! Pours with a nice fluffy head and light amber colored body! Sweet!

Very good IPA for the price. Pours a light copper color with a nice head. If your short on cash grab this one and try it out, you might just get hooked.

bottle: pours a clean cooper orange with a white head some lacing. aroam is grapefruit peel citrus hops a little bitter. little ot no malt adn a small peppery aroma. flavour is a bitter hops again no malt anywhere. finishes with more hop bitterness that lingers as an affter taste also some peppery flavour. good hop but no malt at all to balance it out.

Clear sparkling amber, creamy off white head. Hop blast of pink grapefruit and candied orangey pine that rest on a soft sweet malt undertone. Bitter piney citrus flavors warm to nutty earth-like notes. Hop loaded from start to finish. Medium bodied, medium carbonation, bitter finish (as expected). A well made strong (not double) IPA in my book. Price can’t be beat either at $4 / bomber….
