Quadruple IPA.
We used 11 different hops in this years (3rd Anniversary) brew. All Cryo and Incognito hops creating a complex, smooth and dangerously drinkable IPA we love. Cheers and thank you for 3 amazing years!

Wowsers at this ABV. and still manages to capture all the now-iconic Kettlehead characteristics are present - turbid, juicy, low-bitterness, smooth mouthfeel, clean finish. Very enjoyable, but one-and-done not as fun!

Picked up a 4-pack of this yesterday at the Brewpub, after having a 4oz sample at the source. Draining a 16oz can tonight while watching election results (Go Blue!). The 4-pack was at $22.00, btw....
This one is a hazy, murky, juicy-looking brew. Has a bright, medium-golden color. Can't see any carbo, but it has a short, fine white layer of foam. Lacing is quite nice, with a decent bit of foam adhering to the glass. Aroma has a bit of toasty malt along with lots of sweetish citrus action. Has tangerine and apricot, plus some resiny pineapple. The body is a solid medium, bordering on medium-plus, and it is supremely smooth.
Taste follows the aroma, with toasty, semisweet malt leading off before heading to hop city. More apricot, tangerine, pineapple and some peach tickle the palate. Has a smidge of pithy, piney action, though the sweetness lingers lovingly in the finish. And at 12.5% ABV, it goes down waaaay too easily..... This is a solid, scarily drinkable brew.... Reminds me a lot of Backyard Brewing Power Throuple. Happy 3 years, Kettlehead!! Prosit!!
