An imperial IPA that was brewed to turn your world upside down. Hops will get you coming and going. Pungent aromatics up front pair with a malt-balanced backbone and a smooth, bitter finish.

Pours a clear yellow color with a small white head that goes away quickly. Has a strong pine smell mixed with fruits and hops. Taste is exactly like how it smells.

Orange color , nice off-white head. Aroma of pine, fruits , caramel. Juicy taste with notes of pine and tropical fruits. Pleasant, long-lasting , hoppy bitterness.

355 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 9.4%, 86 IBUs. Surprisingly pale golden colour, probably the palest American double IPA I’ve seen. Big to moderate white head. Distinct but still relatively moderate aroma of citrussy and piney American hops, also notes of caramel and orange marmalade. The flavour is of course very hoppy from start to finish, but not really extreme. The grapefruity bitterness is partly balanced by a pronounced malty sweetness. Notes of caramel and orange marmalade again. Very bitter aftertaste.

My favorite IPA.
Big grapefruit up front.
Alcohol is well hidden.
A great citrusy beer.
