IPA - Imperial / Double Regular

Score

7.02

ABV: 8.0%

IBU: 100

Ticks: 4

A brew that started at 2018 with a subtle profile of flowers and honey, evolved in 2020 into hoppy brew, full of ripe stoned fruits and dunkness that fill the room as you open the bottle and again in 2022 with a more tropical fruit hoppy approach!
The taste follows the extravagant nose with Citra, Talus and Chinook and Centennial leading the way to a sweet and bitter aftertaste and an alcohol content that you won't be able to sense before it's too late!

440ml can outside at Rudi's Beerhouse. Dissipating white head, scattered lacing, misty golden-orange body. Inviting citrus smell with a tropical touch. Flavoured with citrus, lemon and orange, supported by pineapple and apricot. Lingering hop fruity ending with a bitter bite. Well bodied. Nice. (Chania, 31.05.2023).

Bottle from a liquor store in Patras, drunk in Kalamaki on our last night before Athens. Orange-brown mid-hazy amber with a nice head, grapefruit and pine aromas. Preach, honey/caramel, and tropical goodness mixed in on the palate. Really nice fruit aromas, there's a lot going on here! It doesn't taste like over 100 ibu but that's ok with me, maybe it's due to the remaining sugars. Excellent one with a nice balance of sweetness & big bitterness!

Bottle courtesy of Kostas, Kykao brewery, cheers mate! Consumed at home Thursday 17th December 2020. Pours dark gold,light amber, punchy full on bitterness balanced with a nice maltiness, citrussy, more citrussy than expected stone fruits, soft mouthfeel, good, a little light on carbonation but there is a nice white head and it is there. Good.
