Outburst in a refreshingly bitter Imperial IPA. With 80 IBUs, and 8.5% ABV, our dry-hopped Imperial IPA delivers a bold taste with a massive hop flavor.

Clear copper in color with slight head and minimal lacing.
Nice aroma of citrus and some peppery spice.
Hoppy, citrus and slight malt sweetness.
Somewhat drying mouthfeel.
Not my favorite but would definitely put in "won't let you down" list.

This is a another NW winner for sure, completely underrated, it has more of a spicy malt underlay with the citrusy, vegetal greens fizzing over the top. Not as aromatic or sharp as so many others but somehow the overall feel and way everything comes together makes this one excellent, IMO

From old, undated notes. Poured from the bottle.

Murky orange color.

Huge white head; lots of spotty lace.

Orange citrus nose, with a nice malt backbone. Smells nice.

Medium mouthfeel.

Pleasant but a bit boring, this has a vague citrus vibe and a bitter finish. Very drinkable; forgettable.

Ipas are usually more bitter or dark, and usually the added abv comes eith added flavor, but the citrus and hop notes are pretty weak for the alcohol kick your getting
