Deadlift Imperial IPA is unlike any Imperial IPA you’ve ever lifted from the beer aisle. It has the strong hop flavor you’d expect from an Imperial IPA but no heaviness that could weigh down your desire to take another sip. The unique flavor stems in part from Nelson Sauvin hops imported from New Zealand. Deadlift’s other component, a simple but fully braced malt backbone muscles up enough malty sweetness and caramel character to spot the incredibly robust hop flavor and aroma.
Deadlift Imperial IPA uses Nelson Sauvin hops from New Zealand’s best hop growing region: South Island’s Nelson. This region produces some of the most flavorful hops found anywhere. These hops have an intense citrus, fruity, berry-like aroma and flavor that makes them unique. The result will surely be a welcome workout for your taste buds.

12 fl. oz. bottle bought at Bierland Hamburg under the Nelson Imperial IPA label. I like the Widmer Bros. bottle design. Dark golden in the glass. Fine carbonated, nice white head. On the nose fine light fresh grapefruit herb with vanilla in the background. Starts fruity herb, dry on the palate. Honey and malt. Not a hope hammer. I enjoyed it. Great one.

Botella de 33 cl en casa. 20-12-13. Color ambar anaranjado con espuma blanca no muy persistente. Cuerpo medio convirtiéndose a medida que calienta un poco más densa incrementando los sabores afrutados dulces, maltosos y cereales. Aromas afrutados (mango, melocoton maduro...) al principio seguidos de ligero cereal. Sabor dulce seguido de toques resinosos (sobre todo antes de templar) y con retrogusto amargo de lupulo muy seco. Una imperial Ipa sin muchos sobresaltos.

(Bottle, 0.355 l - as Nelson Imperial Ipa - bottled Jun 04 2013, at Oluttupa Viisi Penniä, 20130831) The beer poured amber. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness, herbalness, sweetness and malts. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, spiciness, malts, sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy, sweet and bitter. A nice double IPA but nothing really special.

Flaske fra Gml. Strand Øllager, siste kveld på hytta: gylden og mye humle med litt karamell og frukter som fersken og lime. Solid maltkropp og a lingering afterburn. Et øl å nyte langsomt i små slurker.
