32oz grunt filled at the Iron Goat tasting room for approximately $7. According to Paul, one of the owner/brewers, this was brewed for the Manito Tap House, but joked he told the Tap House’s owner it’s actually named for Manito Park, a popular park on Spokane’s South Hill. On the chalk board at the tasting room, this was listed as having 98 IBUs and an abv of 9.8%.
Poured a golden amber color that took on a chill-hazed, darker, orangey-amber color when in a Boston Lager glass. There was a small beige colored head that receded to a bubbly skiff in relatively short order.
Piney and citrusy hop notes greeted the schnozz, but it’s a restrained kind of hoppiness. There’s a fairly big, malt backbone present as well.
Lots of piney hop flavor, but not a tooth enamel-burning IPA. Although it has 98 IBUs, it’s not a hop bomb. Like a lot of Imperial/Double IPAs (let alone “Triple”), it is less notable for its hoppiness than for its alcohol strength. Unlike a lot of such beers, it does NOT taste like fermented fruit juice or a nasty batch of prison pruno. It’s very well balanced, with a big malty backbone that keeps the hops in check and provides a very smooth drinking experience without doing too much to dominate the taste (I.E., it’s not a big IPA that is so malty that it tastes like a barleywine). As it warms, there’s a little bit of booze in the background, but it doesn’t intrude much on the tastebuds.
Medium bodied, with a slightly oily mouthfeel.
Much like with their Ninkasi collaboration, Goatorhead, Iron Goat has created a dangerously drinkable beer, with a ridiculously high alcohol content. Clearly not a session beer, 32 ounces of this is best consumed on a day when you can expect to be staying home. It
