COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Not quite an imperial, but certainly not a standard India pale ale. Our double IPA is a hop lovers dream. Citrusy and clean with an incredible finish.

I love these hop brews where the aroma of hops twiks you in the nose as soon as you pop the cap,aroma settles to a piney citrusy hopping,a little on the soft side,some bready malting,taste is sweet malting and that combination of hops with a mix of pine ,citrus and herbel textures. Little hint of finishing alcohol. Lighter ,very drinkable Imperial IPA, nice to get something like this in 12 ozers

12 oz. bottle. Light gold color, with a big, bubbly, off-white head. The aroma is white bread, resin, honey, lime, and some light minerals. Malty sweetness and good bitterness. Very nicely balanced. This is a nice, light, flavorful IPA. Not very aggressively hopped, but tasty.

Tap. Pours clear gold with creamy white head. Aroma is floral and citrus hops, biscuit and cereal malts, grapefruit, and orange peel. Flavor is nice hop bitterness with good supporting light fruit esters, bready malts, and a touch of sweetness; dry finish. Medium body and low carbonation.

Golden with white lacy head. Robust citrus aroma. Lively mouthfeel, with a nicely balanced bitterness and sweetness. Surprisingly light for a dipa.

MikeKeller (584) - Kemi Rock City, FINLAND - JUN 8, 2013
Bottle @ Olutravintola Kukko, Kemi. Tropical fruity aroma. Sweetish malty taste is nicely bitter with fruity hops. Fullbodied for an IPA.

I used to think the world of this beer, but I had it last night and my opinion changed. My recent more mixed impression may have been due to freshness. It may have been due to my evolving palate. Probably some combination of the two. Pours a clear light orange with white. Scent is booze and citrus. Nice sweet back end, but no hoppy bite on the front. Going to give this beer another shot whenever I can find it super fresh. Bottle - Dakota Blue - Atlanta, GA

Malt heavy & lacks the kick I expect with a double IPA. Very sessionable, could drink several consecutively.
