Three Floyds Dreadnaught Imperial IPA

I was shocked to realize that I have never had this, couldnt pass it up. Not overated at all, an incredible DIPA. Despite the IBU’s, not one flavor dominates with the citrusy and sweet backing. Thick with almost no foam, it goes down real smooth, but take it slow. Will definetly grab more the next time I see it.

Pours a murky orange with the slightest bit of head. Grapefruit and malty aroma. Tastes similar with a bit of hops and other citrus fruits like lemons and orange. Syrupy with little to no carbonation, no sign of the higher ABV. Slightly bitter but the malts balance that out. A decent IIPA.

alright, after 3 or 4 more bottles I finally got one with a good hop character. It still isn’t quite as hoppy as most people say, but it sure bumps it up. Original score was a 3.2

bomber from marinos in toledo. I’d had this at the 3floyds brewery but hadn’t done a proper rating. hazy orange pour with medium to large fluffy head. grapefruit and hop aroma. hoppy and citrus flavor up front then lots of malt to balance. long crisp finish. one of the best beers I’ve ever tried.

Pours a hazy amber orange with small head but great lacing. Smells of huge hops, piney, grassy and citrus rind along with grapefruit. Taste is a wallop to the buds and I love it. Delicious, power packed hops but as soon as you want to pucker a nice balance of fruit and malt make this an incredible balanced DIPA. Alcohol is not present other than a little warming. Carbonation is perfect as is the medium mouthfeel and crazy drinkability. Finishes a little dry and bitter from the hops but does not sting or linger. If I had access to this I would have it batting cleanup. A must try for any true BA.

Ruby color with a rich, creamy, white head that slowly dissipates. Tiny bubbles shoot up the glass to the little island of head in the middle, leaves a nice lacing. Lemon, citrus, a lot of grapefruit aroma, actually smells thick with grapefruit. Taste is loads up with the lemon and citrus, but the grapefruit is most definately dominant, almost like a concentrated grapefruit juice. Be prepared, full of juicy hops. Thick, sticky on the tongue, full bodied and high carbonation explode flavors onto your tongue. This is great on occasion, but would probably wear out your palate if had too often. Get some if you can.

Hazy orange pour with a lasting creamy beige head atop. Smell is nice and aromatic with big fruity, citrusy hops in the nose. Taste was hopped but not nearly as much as expected and had strong notes of orange, peachiness to it. Candied bitter orange peel flavor to it. Much more balanced than expected. Decent body and a bitter orange finish. Mild alcohol presence but a very nicely drinkable IIPA. My rating will probably go up drinking this in more than a sample glass size at a time and looking forward to trying it again.

The best IPAs I’ve ever had. The nose is amazing and so smooth. I will add to this later and give a better review when I go bac to Piccolo’s for more. Right now I want to drink this beer and watch a hockey game.

had a hard time getting this one...then luckly came into a case. Very nice pour great smell. Left a sweet taste in my mouth, craving more.
