I'm not sure if this is a version of on the breweries already listed beers or a new beer, please adjust this listing as needed if you know.

Served in straight pint glass. Poured a lightly hazy light gold color with about an inch of white head that had good retention and very light lacing.

There was a huge blast of piney hops upfront. And in the middle. And at the end. The big hop scents all but obscured the base grain and more gentle hops underneath. On the tongue, the beer was also very hop dominated. Just the lightest trace of a nice Pils showed this hop-bomb. This brew was as hoppy as any ImpIPA I've ever had.

The body was good, smooth and crisp throughout, but there was a slightly bitter hop finish that lingered a bit too long for my tastes. Drinkability was pretty good, and would be great if you're big hop-head. Overall, a very good brew that is most certainly worth a try if you see it. Basically, this beer is just hop juice, if you want a huge dose of hops with out a lot of other beer flavors, this is the perfect brew for you and would be a must try.

Serving type: on-tap
