An absolute bruiser of an IPA; Nomadic pushes its style limits with a well hidden 7.5% ABV and enough bitterness to balance out its weight without abusing your palate. First sniff and the huge pineapple and papaya notes jump out at you, only to be followed up immediately with a pungent kick of freshly harvested buds, finishing with a beautiful balance between the tropical and the dank. Mild aromatic malt character is consistent start to finish, aiding in balancing out this potent beast.

Draught at Ale Arsenal. Fantastic tropical aroma filled through with moderate dank. Clear light gold with moderate soapy head and slight patterns. Taste leans to dank resins with fruit in support. Moderate high bitterness backs up the hop flavor and cracker malt make this well balanced.

On tap at the brewery. It pours a pale golden color with a white head. The aroma is strong with earthy green onion, garlic, grass and background notes of orange. The flavor is very dry, grassy, lightly spicy with and earthy garlic-like spicy bitterness. Dank earth and well farmed soil come to mind. Only mild hints of citrus fruit in the background. Kinda boring, but very clean.
