BOOM! IBU:89 is an American style Double IPA with a light but balanced malt body giving the hops the chance to do the talking. Lots of citrus, stone fruit and pine notes. With a long lingering bitter finish. Here comes the boom.

Mother Kelly’s. Keg. Almost clear amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light and semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Light but sweetish malts, some grain as well. Decent spicy pine hops and a touch of tropical fruits. A light semi dry finish. Lacks something for a big DIPA.
