La Cumbre Anniversary IPA

La Cumbre Brewing Company
Albuquerque, New Mexico
Beer style: IIPA DIPA - Imperial / Double IPA
Ref: ratebeer.com May2024

Common descriptors are
What happens when the brewery with the finest IPA in the land sets out to brew a Double IPA? Well, hold onto your britches hop heads. Wanting balance? Go elsewhere. This is for lovers of hops. We used an exceptionally simple malt bill (our Pale Ale malt and dextrose make up 100% of the fermentables) for the purpose of allowing every lb. of hops to shine through, and man are there a lot of lbs. in this puppy; 7 lbs./bbl to be exact. The aroma is a cacophony of hops; pineapple, apricot, pine and grapefruit. You could smell this beer from the other side of the room. Ridiculous… we know. The flavor is straightforward. Again, we’re not going for balance. Hops, hops, and more hops. The finish is a big blistering bittering dryness that sticks with you for hours. WARNING: Do not make this the first beer of the night. Everything else will be completely lame and lacking afterwards.
8.9% ABV, 120 IBUS (250 calculated)
