Style | ABV
American Double / Imperial IPA |  8.50% ABV

Availability: Year-round. bottle (662), on-tap (9). 

Notes:
The classic India Pale Ale is a traveler’s beer, aggressively hopped to withstand the long, hot ocean voyage to the British East Indies. Our Double-Wide I.P.A. also travels well, and is right at home in the most exotic ports of call of the Midwest. While this modern-day prairie schooner may not resemble a graceful sailing sloop, our liberal hopping regimen does make her virtually “twister-proof,” with toffee and caramel notes balancing out the lingering bitterness. Enjoy this beer fresh to best appreciate the complex blending of hop aromas, ranging from minty to citrusy, with subtle hints of pine.

look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

A - Deep dark orange / ruby red body. 2 finger head with great retention; slowly receded leaving bubbles and lacing in the glass.

S - Hops. Many hops. However the aroma is not as strong as one would expect - Might have an older bottle (the bottle states "best by 2/24/2012"). Some light malt in the nose as well.

T - Pine resin, grapefruit, apricots, nectarines. Malt backbone is bready and nice.

M - Good carbonation, small bite from the alcohol but its fairly hidden.

O - Good DIPA but I would love to have a fresh one. I'm sure it's even better.

look: 4.25 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.75

A-Clear amber orange, two finger head, leaves some lacing.

S-Malt, caramel, some dirt and grass, not as much hops as I was expecting.

T-Starts malty with caramel, then dirt and grassy hops. Milt citrus hops and mild bitterness.

M-Medium bodied, nicely carbonated and some hop resins.

O-Not as aggressive for a DIPA as I'd like, the bottle was fresh, but it needed some more hops.
