Hoppin' Frog Mean Manalishi Double IPA

A bottle purchased in Wisconsin recently, with notes from December, 2009:


Very hazey, deep sunsetted orange coloration., slim negligible head.

Aroma: spice and fruit aplenty. A mess of citric and tropical fruit, with a blas tof pithy spice.

Taste: Toasty caramel malt holds down the fort, with bitter hops blazing above. A murky soup of intense hoppy flavors. Bright, bitter, bold, rich, .... a great melange of spicy, aggressive flavors. Thick mouthfeel ,long, hoppy finish.

Big and thick.
Impressive.
