Tyranena's Hop Whore Imperial IPA, from the Brewers Gone Wild Series, drinking now, looking at notes from October, 2006, when it was first released:
Aroma screams of hops, pungent pine, deep dark fruit, tropical fruit, pineapple, mango, banana, grapefruit, Delectable. Major malt is felt, as well, and it puts me in mind of a barleywine. Major alcohol smell.
Incredibly intense impression in the mouth. Huge hop blast, brilliant bitterness riding the tongue. Ripe fruit burst everywhere along the palate. Just delicious. And, although insanely bitter and hoptastic, it's remarkably easy to drink. Or maybe I'm just inured to the hops. That's probably it.
Full bodied, eternal finish. Bitterness persists and rings fresh with every swallow.
Really tasty. My kind of Double IPA. Yum, yum.
