And, again, they get me. Nothing on the label about it, but...
It's all cloudy, like they all are, dull orange/golden color, mightily murky, with a slim white head.
In the nose: Hoppy, fuzzy, pineapple, orange, grapefruit and pine. All kind of leafy, green things.
In the mouth: Climbs on the palate smooth, sweet, a little chalky/fuzzy/yeasty. Fruity, juicy. Plenty of citrus and tropical notes from the hops popping on the tongue, and swimming about the palate. Lean bodied, moderate finish, mild bitterness. Starts to get sharp as the looming alcohol looms. And then it hits, and it's good. Nice and mellow.
Ultimately, though, it's too sweet and fuzzy and has almost no bitterness, which is what I want in a double, or triple IPA, not just huge alcohol. I need huge hops, too. Maybe that's just me. They tricked me, man.
It's not what I want from a "triple IPA", but I'll enjoy it all the same.
