Finch Beer Co. in Chicago, Illinois, United States 🇺🇸

  IPA - Imperial / Double Regular
Score
6.81
ABV: 9.0% IBU: 80 Ticks: 61
An American style imperial IPA brewed with Citra, Simcoe, Columbus, Cascade and Mosaic hops. Hardcore Chimera is then dry hopped with over a pound of hops per BBL. Ringing in with over 80 IBU’s, Hardcore Chimera’s intense aroma and flavor of passion fruit and citrus is balanced out against a hearty grain bill that lends to the beer’s deceptively drinkable 9% ABV.

Burk restaurant Wilhelmshill. Ljusgul grumlig lovar gott. Doftar hav och äpplen. Omedelbart en krämig känsla i munnen. Smak kommer äpple sen lite apelsin sen kommer godis. Vilken godis? Jo du skumbananen är tydlig som Faan. Riktigt god fyllig kanske något söt Dipa.

can - Pours lightly hazy gold with a one finger head. It smells of resinous, citrusy hops. The flavor is high on the bitterness as expected. Citrus, caramel malt and a medium to full body. It’s very good.
