Monumental IPA has flavors of citrus and pine resin and floral aromas combined with a malty caramel background. This IPA shows a delicious, yet elusive balance between hop bitterness and malt flavors. We believe that Monumental IPA is a great example of a complex and balanced East Coast-style IPA.

[12oz bottle from Beer52.] A bright amber pour with a thick cream head; vegetal aroma; strong malty body with lots of resinous pine wood. Certainly an American IPA, but rather one-dimensional.

Rocky white head stayed on a heavily particulated amber body. Dank aroma. Medium bodied, smooth on the tongue with a clean back. Bitter/Sweet citrus, confectionery, jam & syrup tastes. Drinkable

35cl Fles van Vonk. Gouden-amber kleur, witte kraag. Aroma van dennen, wat hars, caramel, doet wat oldskool aan. Smaak is bloemig, citrus, beetje dennen, caramel, medium zoet, goede bitterheid. Medium body. Prima, maar niet per sΓ© import-waardig.

10 week old bottle A: Clear deep orange gold with active bubbles and 1/2 of tan foam. Good retention and sheet lacing.. S: Pine, orange peel and heavy caramel. T: Brash piny hops with bitter and tart orange zest and pith quickly joining. Caramel is much lighter than in the nose. Not too sweet. M: Lively fine carbonation gives a fairly light feel. Powdery finish. O: Very nice even if not very fresh. Must revisit when possible.

Bottle from the international bar at the 2019 Bedford Beer Festival. Pours an almost alarming neon orange/gold with an uneven white head. Lots of caramel, orange peel, gluey resin. Sweet taste with lots of sticky, gluey malt. It's not the best US IPA I have had. But it's quaffable...

Bottle from a branch of Giant in Sterling, Virginia. Golden in colour, with moderate carbonation. Light, citrus hops and fruit, sweetish malts, a suggestion of pine and dryish finish. Ok.
