A 22oz bomber picked up at Greens Buford Hwy, atl

A - Pours a dark orange, with a huge 2 fingers of head. Nice sticky lace.

S - Huge piny hops, citrus. Huge aroma. Fresh.

T - Like the smell, a huge blast of pine and citrus hops. A hop lovers dream. VERY well balanced. This is an Imperial IPA at its best.

M - Medium bodied, dry finish.

O - I am excited to get an Alpine here on the East Coast. I visited the brewery last year, but you can't find it outside of CA. Thanks New Belgium!
Alpine is none for their huge IPA's. They knock it out of the park, AGAIN

Poured from a bomber into a stemmed tulip glass.

A- Poured a nice looking golden orange color, nice and bright. The fluffy cream-white head fades to nothing leaving some spotty lacing.

S- Powerful complex hop aroma followed by some syrupy maltiness. Lots of Citrus. It smells 'thick', if that's possible.

T-Heavy hop and malt flavors, some citrus and some caramel. I'm picking up some licorice, I think.

M- Powerful aromas and heavy flavors make for a very full body and feel. Plenty of carbonation provides some relief and balance to the full body. Malt sweetness and hop bite are equally posted.

O- Like I told my friend; " this Sh*t rocks!". Oh, and it's a friendly drinker, too.
