Triple dry hopped Imperial IPA
3 dry hop additions with 3 varieties of hops over 3 weeks. Naturally carbonated, unpasteurized, unfiltered and brewed with 9% locally grown and locally "malted" fine 2 row barley. Our 3 hops, Zythos, Galaxy & Ella, incarnated as the 3 headed beast. Cerberus on the label deliver a vicious attack on the palette with citrus, peach, and a delicate pine locked in a dog fight with the alpha acid and a warm smooth bite of alcohol. A battle to the bitter end!

Bottle from West End Liquor, Vancouver
Cloudy red-amber color, medium sized head. Mild malt aroma, more hop resins. Good body strength, a lot of caramel flavor, a bit of roasty malt, strong bitterness.
Too dark for my preference, but clean and well brewed.

650mL bottle, pours a filthy orangey brown with a small off-white head. Aroma is over-malted, with sweet caramel, herbal and spicy hops. Flavour is decently balanced, with a big caramely bready malt backbone paving the way for earthy, herbal hops. Lots of dry hopping that is noticeable on the finish. Strikes more as a hoppy imperial amber, but this is well-done for what it is. Good stuff.
