Collaboration with Vitamin Sea Brewing

This 8.5% Imperial IPA is hopped with with Galaxy, Rakau, Strata and Citra. We used a different fermentation profile than normal to lower bitterness and increase juiciness of the hops.

Reviewed a little less than two weeks after can release. Poured into a Magnify tulip glass. It pours a bright golden orange color with over a finger of fluffy, bright white head and thick, clinging lacing. A fruity nose featuring lemon, lime, grapefruit, lite pine, and floral hops. The initial taste is tart with lemon peel and grapefruit rind but as I swirl it in my mouth I detect sweeter notes of tangerine and perhaps some passion fruit and lychee from the Citra and Galaxy hops. The Strata hops add herbal dankness and the Rakau hops provide clean bitterness at the finish. The taste really pops as it warms a bit. This ale has fairly lively carbonation and it drinks very easily for 8.5% ABV. I was surprised how quickly I drained the can. Overall, Sea Migrations is very good. It's a little more delicate than a typical Magnify DIPA; perhaps the influence of Vitamin Sea Brewing - a brewery I haven't experienced. I really enjoyed it!
