Style | ABV
American Double / Imperial IPA |  8.20% ABV

Availability: Year-round. bottle (152), on-tap (7), cask (3), growler (2), nitro-bottle (1). 

Notes:
Although usually identified with landfills and pipelines, the Hackensack Meadowlands is an amazingly diverse ecosystem providing vital animal and plant habitat. In a nod to a once common food plant here, we’ve brewed this beer with wild rice. We also added organic brown and white rice, as well as pils and pale malts.

Rice helps the beer ferment dry to better showcase the five different hops we added. Lots and lots of them. We then dry-hopped this Double IPA with even more–generous additions of Chinook and Citra hops to create a nose that hints at tangerine, mango, papaya and pine. This beer pairs extremely well with spicy foods and all kinds of seafood. And of course, it’s quite enjoyable all by itself.

look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.25

Poured from a 12 oz. bottle to a Poco Grande glass. Label stamped with a best by date of 09-07-13.

Crystal clear golden color with a fluffy white head, dissipated fairly quickly, but left some real nice lacing. Head returned easily with a little swirling of the glass.
Boom! The aroma is a beautiful! Tangerines, pineapples, pine, a little earthiness.
A great amount of hops in this beer. Bottle says the brewed this with 5 different types and dry hopped with Chinook and Citra, defiitely picking up on those. Simcoe is majorly prevalent in the taste, love it!
Love the dry finish and a nice amount of malts to round out the hop assault. Left me salivating for more and more! Very nice lingering hop presence well after the swallow. No sign of the 8.2% ABV.
Overall I think is another quality brew from Flying Fish! A very easy drinking DIPA that can surely get you in trouble quick if you aren't careful!
