Draft at Canal Street location before the Bruins played the Pittsburgh Penguins. 2/24/2016. Slightly hazy gold in color with some legs of head. Aromas of grapefruit, pineapple, and floral/grassy boldness.
Taste of grapefruit, lemon/orange peel through the center with the floral and grassy notes coming in on the finish. It does display a good amount of hop varieties here to give this profile. The texture has a big dryness from the bittering hops. Medium carbonation and medium-full, yeasty body. The bitterness rides the line of being overly abrasive. Alcohol is also kind of noticeable in the flavor. I mean, it is what they say it is, a huge IBU, booze monster of an Imperial IPA.
