Bottle text & Info:
An imperial IPA that was brewed to turn your world upside down. Hops have got you coming and going. Pungent aromatics up front paired with a malt balanced backbone and a smooth bitter finish.
Tasting Notes:
Pours - golden to orange with a small white head. A legion of huge bubbles rising singly from the depths. Smells like hop oils. Pine, grapefruit, orange peel, sweet malts - in that order. A high alcohol version of my most favorite beer; Founders Harvest Ale. Short blasts of cirtus in succession with pine tied together by a sweet malt backing. yum. It's no, hopslam but i still pee a little everytime this comes in off the loading dock.
