Blessed be! Our ridiculously big, hoppy I.P.A. returns to the rapturous exaltations of worshippers far and near.
Featuring Simcoe, Amarillo, and Columbus hops at an unheard of rate of over three pounds per barrel, with American pale and Belgian caramel malts providing a malty but dry pedestal upon which this hop fest rides until its long, lingering,hop-bittered finish. Beware this vengeful, Old-Testament God. Say your prayers…

Bottle 65 cl. Pours a hazy amber with a dense beige head. Rich sweet caramel aroma with rather perfumy hops. Rich body, loads of toffee and burned caramel with a solid hop bite. I love the richness and caramel here - nicely balanced by the hops. 100912

22 oz. bottle, split several ways, pours a clear reddish amber with a small white head. Aroma of dry caramel malts, not much else - doesn't strike me as a IIPA. Flavour of dry caramel malts, some red berries, and soapy citrus hops - quite dry, with just a little sweetness. Again, doesn't seem an IPA/IIPA, but it's very solid.

Pours a deep copper color with reddish highlights and a huge fluffy off white head that slowly dissipates but leaves lots of sticky lace down the side of the glass. Smells of citrus, garlic, green onion, resin, pine, and maybe some malt. The flavor contains more malt that the aroma suggests. Up front I get a solid shot of caramel and toffee before the hop patrol figures out I’ve taken a sip and the hit me full force. Lots of bitter resin, garlic, onions, and a bit of pine fill the palette with each sip. a long lingering garlic hoppy bitterness fill the finish of every sip. Medium body with a moderate level of carbonation and a resinous sticky mouthfeel. This is a nice IPA! I might tone down the garlic a bit, but I enjoyed it just the same.

Pours bright mahogany into a tulip. Off-white head with excellent retention recedes leaving spot lacing. Citrus and caramel aromas. Dry with sweet caramel upfront turning to bitter citrus and resin in the lasting earthy finish. Similar to a big man...
