Simtra Triple IPA delivers a punch in the face with its very danky hop aroma derived from Simcoe and Citra hops. You wanted more hops you got them.

I think I prefer the IPA on the left, rather than the right.

Tap at YOLO, Bangkok. Poured a slightly hazy golden colour with a frothy white head. The aroma is malt, tropical sweet fruits, woody hop, light alcohol. The flavour is moderate sweet, moderate to light bitter with a dry malt, fruity, nettle woody alcohol bitter palate and a warm long alcohol bitter finish. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation.

Bouteille 650 ml du Canada craft Beer Club. O: Agrumes avec orange, fruits tropicaux, mangue et gazon. ’’très gazon’’. Le malt démontre sa présence avec un peu de biscuit et l’alcool est très puissant. V: Doré, tirant sur le ambré, sa mousse d’épaisseur moyenne et d’aspect rocailleuse recouvre un liquide clair et limpide. G: Le gazon recouvre l’entièreté de la langue dès l’entrée de bouche, puis se déclinent tons de fruits tropicaux ainsi qu’en une intense amertume résineuse rendue astringente par le puissant alcool. Sauf pour le gazon qui est dominant, on retrouve en sous-note de l’orange et de la mangue. Le problème de cette bière est que l’intensité de son dry hop et son alcool puissant tuent toutes les autres saveurs. Son corps charnu et sa texture grasse en font un liquide fort appréciable mais à la complexité gustative restreinte. Il y en aura peut-être pour encenser cette bière. Mais vous m’en verrez désolé, ça me prend un minimum de variété de saveurs. Pas juste de l’alcool et du houblon.

Bottle from Titans, served in my IPA glass. Crystal clear beautiful copper in color with an insanely hoppy bouquet featuring tons of tropical fruits. Medium bodied with a slightly scratchy carbonation. The taste is bitter woodsy pine, sweet sirupy malts and hugely fruity hops. For such a high ABV it is much less boozzy than I expected though it does have some heat to it. Really good.

Beautiful bitter bomb, hoppy as hoppy can be with a gigantic malt base to offset the brutal finish. Pour is gorgeous, a glorious orange-gold underneath an enormous head and age rings that linger after each sip. Nose explodes with citrus and cat pee, backed by an orange-tinted sweetness and the slightest hint of booze. But, dear lord, what a hop bomb, the pine-grapefruit-orange-floral pungency of the Citras and Simcoes melding with caramel-toast malts to create a flood of majestic IPA excess. Starts mildly sweet, grows increasingly bitter, and finishes uber-resinous, a lingering finish for the ages. Alcohol is completely hidden, and the feel is silky smooth. Great beer.

Extra dank daffodil, scallions, rubber, and mango nose.Clear amber, medium head, little retention. Daffodil, fingernail polish at midpalate, grapefruit and orange peel. Medium body, soft carbonation, oily and resinous. Straight up bong water. I’m sure the potheads are really going to love this. It isn’t really my style, but I still enjoyed it.

Bottle from Beer Junction, Seattle. Light golden-amber, with a bubbly head. Assertive hop nose, bringing...uh...orangey litterbox, as per either the name of the beer or the power of suggestion. Definitely some alcohol in there, along with what I would say is a bit of heavier, stickier pale malt. Sweet-bitter palate bringing a citrus rind pithy bitterness, with light orange and grapefruit notes, and a thwack of alcohol upside the head. There’s definitely some sweet malts in there, lots of them in fact, but they are kept in balance by the rich hoppiness. A drunker guy wouldn’t know this was a triple IPA and would kill that bomber quick. Which is high praise for this style. Top quality. Shout out to mcberko for the recommendation.
