Aroma: spring time fruit blossoms, sweet pink grapefruit,
caramel bread
Flavors: really follows the nose; soft and sweet pink
grapefruit up front; tropical fruit with pink grapefruit leading the way;
followed by the caramel bread; floral notes swirl around; grapefruit bitterness
on the back along with a dash of musty white pepper
Mouthfeel: the sweet malts help to balance this Imperial IPA;
extra-fine carbonation; almost creamy on the first half and then flannel on the
second half and a nice wool like feel on the finish; lingering floral/tropical
on the palate
To the Point: Damn, I like this beer; at 9.1% it is eassssy
to drink; Excellent; a MUST buy; tasty hops balance by some pleasing malts; Now go to the store and buy some
Diner Pairing: the ginger and garlic spice mix well with the tropical notes of the IPA; the touch of honey in the sauce works with the sweet notes of the ale as well
