New Belgium Voodoo Ranger Liquid Paradise IPA

New Belgium Voodoo Ranger Rotating IPA Series Liquid Paradise IPA. Alc. 7.8 % by Vol. 44 IBU. New Belgium Brewing, Fort Collins, CO.

Clear, bright golden, slight orange hue, stable slab of ivory head on top.

In the nose: Assertive citrus, little bit floral, popping with papaya and pineapple. Most delightful.

In the mouth: Hop bitterness boards the palate, bringing citrus & tropical fruit flavors. Dripping deliciousness. Light bodied, long, bitter finish.

This is an all-around right-on IPA. Whatever they were trying to accomplish with this one, they nailed it, right on the head. It has everything I want in an IPA, and then some.

Using Mosaic Incognito, Azacca and Cascade hops, Liquid Paradise boasts a mélange of tropical notes to create a delicately bitter and extremely aromatic IPA.
