The world needs heroes, and in our home state of Florida only a very special hero will do. A hero with a shark tooth around his neck, a Grim Reaper tattoo on his arm, and a rap sheet longer than his mama’s mustache. A hero who’s forgotten more about amateur taxidermy and alligator rasslin’ than you’ll ever know. What better way to pay tribute to our beloved Florida Man than with a big ol’ Double India Pale Ale brewed with a nearly-criminal amount of hops and a moderate bitterness that just about matches Florida Man’s general disposition. This hopped-up whopper of a beer is big in character and guaranteed to sear itself into your memory, just like “the world’s worst superhero,” Florida Man.

355ml can that pours a hazy golden-orange colour with a bubbly off-white head, average retention and not much lacing. Pineapple fruity nose at the beginning with some strong vanilla, coconut mixing in afterwards. Warming alcohol as well. The taste is thankfully not as sweet and fruity. More bitterness, dryness showing citrus zest. No vanilla here and the fruitiness holds the background. Seems like the fruit calms down in the nose, showing some good grassiness - after breathing for a while. Not a bad Double IPA.

Bitter, hop, clean, harsig. Prima spul. En dat voor iets meer dan 3 euro.

Schönes DIPA mit einer außergewöhnlichen Orangigkeit, als ob man seine Zähne in das Fruchtfleisch einer frischen Orange haut. Juicy. Lecker.
