Big flavor, intense pine and citrus aromas dominate this brew. We keep the malt profile clean in this Imperial IPA to let the love lights shine on the fine NW hops.

Pours hazy light amber with a 3 finger frothy off-white head. Aroma is like a floral barley wine. Med body. Flavor is like a floral barley wine with some bittering resin. Very hoppy - but barely harsh. 100+ IBU. Yea!

22 oz. bottle, pours orangey amber with a white head. Aroma of tropical fruits, grapefruit, caramel and citrus hops. Flavour of fresh resinous hops, loads of tropical fruits (mango, peach), some grapefruit, balanced beautifully by caramel malts. Really well-made.

Draught. Cloudy orange pour with medium white head. Aroma is citrus, notably tangerine with pine. Hoppy flavour, full body. Doesnβt taste as strong as it is. Hop finish with more tangerine.

A hazed golden IPA with a very thin white head. In aroma, nice pungeant hops, floral and pinhey with clove honey notes. In mouth, another Belgian inspired IPA with smooth herbaceous hops, catnip, quite nice and funkey. On tap at Belmont Station, Sept. 4 2010.
