Venn Sticky Icky double IPA. 9.7% ABV, 90 IBU. Venn Brewing, Minneapolis, MN.Clear, bright golden/orange-ish hued, slim white head on top.
In the nose: "Dank" is the correct terminology, as well as the titular sticky-ickiness. Pungent, all up in there. Underneath the bouquet of Otto's jacket, comes the citrus notes, the whiff of pine, the traces of tropical. Nice.
In the mouth: Powerful hop attack on the palate starts it out. Big, bountiful and a little fuzzy around the edges. Remarkably smooth past that. Despite the strength, a good drinker. Medium bodied, tasty malt component, amazing hop blast. Bright and beautiful. Alcohol warmth starts shining through....very, very nice. Tasty stuff, indeed.
Face ripper! Straight resin - hold onto yer butts! A super-hoppy, super-dry, super-bitter, resinous, dank enamel-scraper, featuring Eureka and Idaho 7 hops. Sticky icky!
Malts: Domestic 2-Row
Hops: Eureka, Idaho 7, Warrior (United States)
