Three Floyds $600 Lizard Shoes 16x Champion IPA.
6.9 % ABV. 74 IBU.
Three Floyds Brewing, Munster, IN.

Clear, bold amber color, firm and fluffy ivory top.

In the nose: a panoply of fruits in this aroma, not all giving off their truth at once. Berry, apple, citrus far behind. Interesting.

In the mouth: Juicy and bitter. Big hops, and, again, an unnamable cornucopia. Once more, I'm getting some citrus, plus berries, stone fruit, apple, all coated with copious amounts of bitterness. Nice and malty, too, Medium bodied, with a long hoppy/bitter finish, and easily consumed.

This is a good IPA, and I can drink it.

Appearance - The beer poured orange-copper color with a white head and generous lacing on the sides of the glass.

Smell - The nose was Composed of crisp Earthy hops with a slight sense of sweetness.

Taste - The profile was led by Mandarin oranges, lemon, fruit cocktail, and a sweet malty backbone. There was nothing overdone with a nice sense of balance. The orange notes become drier in the aftertaste.

Mouthfeel - The feel was smooth with just a hint of carbonation.

Overall - It is not a 16 time world champion IPA, but it is still quite good.

Draught pour at Ironside in nonic pint. Loved the nose, tropical nectarine papaya, lemon zest and grapefruit, wish it popped a bit more. Taste follows but the citrus dominates and felt the juicier aspects fade to the back. I enjoyed it and would like to revisit in packaged format.
