This is an Imperial IPA in the mold of our beloved running back, Marshawn Lynch of the Seattle Seahawks. A simple recipe built tough with Pale and Crystal malt and loads of Citra and Simcoe hops throughout. With legs always moving, there is nowhere to go but forward! Go Hawks!!

Served in straight pint glass. Poured a nice medium yellow-gold color with just a thin cap of white head with low retention and lacing.
The aroma was very soft, a very muted blend of malt and hops. On the tongue however, a bold mix of hops hits the taste buds. Some pine in front, lots of citrus in the middle, and a blend of floral, citrus and pine at the back. The bitterness seemed to linger longer than anything else. There was only a bit of malt on the tongue.
The malt that was missing from the taste was apparent in the body though. The body was nicely full, without being heavy in the least, and surprisingly smooth for a brew with this amount of hops. Drinkability was pretty good, I'd drink a couple of these guys. Overall, another really nice brew from the folks over on the OlyPen. Certainly worth your time if you see it.
