Draft pour pint at Hop and Hound. A mostly clean golden orange pour. Very nice IPA here. Bold, big, and bitter. Classic IPA which is getting more and more rare every day. Piney hops, slight sweet malt aroma. Flavor is warming, as this dares to be imperial. The malt is toasty. Lateblinger is cool, piney, and bitter. This one is different for sure. I love the malt bill, which has an almost charred element to it. This one is sneaky though. Drinks strong and easy. I'm in the mood for a beer like this way too often. Solid stuff.

Draught at Hops ’n Headz, Bellingham, WA; 6.8% ABV
Hazy golden color, clean. The aroma has some musky hop, the malt flavor is indiscernible, with some residual sweetness, bitter and a bit resiny but not enough hop quality.
Mediocre IPA.
