Tap at the brewpub. Very biscuity, lots of malt, bit sweet too. Initial citrus hop hit, but afterwards just bitter. Quite strong, veering towards dipa, and shows in the taste. Resinous, lots of grain too. Not quite there yet I think.

Pours hazy brownish amber. Foam is nice and stays for.a.bit. This IPA seems to have more alcohol than 7,5%, at 8,3% it is pretty strong and hopefully DIPA-ish. However, aroma is mainly malty with some soap water? Not very aromatic as I would have expected. Taste reveals a bit more hops but is heavy and unbalanced, not really nice at all. Murky and messy. I can finish it but this one was not good.
