From a bomber shared at home. Pours a hazy light copper with a thick off white head. Earthy aroma. Flavors of citrus and pine. Boozy and slightly bitter finish.

Ridiculously large five to six centimetre tall perfectly tan head on top of a deep copper and bronze clear coloured body - strong and very dark for the style. Aroma of alcohol, resin, pine, citrus, grapefruit, oranges and a lot of rich malts. Full-bodied; Super deep malt notes show at first, with a lot of sweetness, candy sugar, fructose with a pungent grassy and very citrusey bitterness with perhaps more alcohol flavours than even a 9,5 per cent abv beer should show - this is pungent, but the resinous, dark notes and even stronger. Aftertaste shows more punch and sweetness than the initial tastes with some lingering honey and pure alcohol flavours and not much in terms of hops, complexity or anything nuanced at all. Overall, a very strong and pungent real Imperial IPA that doesn't hide it's astringency or sweetness - this is abrasive and brash and not worth going out to try and find. Others from Lost Rhino are much better - this is just too much and not mitigated properly. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Costco in Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia on 03-May-2020 for US$2,99 sampled at my house here in Washington, a few blocks away, on 06-May-2020, just three days later.
