Like the hound of Hades, Cerberus is a fierce, three-headed beast that attacks the palette with a fierce blend of hops.
Cerberus is a seasonal I.P.A. with a warm presence featuring heavy notes of citrus and tropical fruits alongside underlying hints of pine and star anise. Cerberus is a beer lover’s beer: unfiltered, unpasteurized, naturally carbonated and brewed with locally-grown and malted barley.
IBUs: 80, S.G.: 1.077, F.G.: 1.010

Serving: 650 mL bottle poured into a wine glass.
Appearance: Hazy copper with thick, rocky head of near white foam that coats the glass with dense, intricate lace.
Smell: Burnt caramel, melon, mulling slices and pine resin.
Taste: Solid malt body with strong toffee notes countered by piney hops and citrus pith bitterness. Hints of boozy warmth.
Mouthfeel: Medium to full body, smooth feel and moderate carbonation.
Overall: Big, malty DIPA with some nice spiced fruit and piney hop notes.

Wolf Brewing 'Cerberus Imperial IPA' @ 8.8% , first tasted at HOPoxia5 on tap , plus this tasting from a 650 ml bottle purchased for $7.79
A-pour is gold from the tap/bottle to a clear amber in the glass with a small off-white leaving a spotty lace along the sampler/pint
S-lots of dry hopped heaven
T-big tasting Imp IPA , distinct west coast vibe , with a boozey dry finish
MF-mild carbonation , big full body
Ov-ok/good beer , could be a good/great Imp IPA from the PNW
