The 2015 incarnation of this annual favorite is a huge American style Imperial IPA brewed with a simple grain bill allowing the copious amounts of American grown Amarillo hops, with pronounced floral and tangerine notes, to take center stage. Hopheads rejoice, but beware, this brew clocks-in at a powerful 9.4% ABV.
