This massive beast pours Amber and sports a well packed off white head that sticks around to see the bottom of the glass. The nose is big dank pine, fresh crushed fir needles, musty forest floor, stone fruit, kiwi, bubble gum and some doughy caramel bread malt. There is a battle between sweet and bitter aromas. Daaamn. The first sip is a kick in mouth. Deep strong resinous dank piney hops, then muddled tropicals and stone fruits. Doughy bread and caramel peek out and are all but lost to the hops. The resin helps a boozy finish stick to the mouth and tongue. It sure is an imperial ipa.
