Three Floyds Hati Berzerker's India Pale Ale

Three Floyds Hati Berzerker's India Pale Ale.
7% ABV. 109 IBU.
Three Floyds Brewing, Munster, IN, in collaboration with heavy metal band Amon Amarth.

Thoroughly hazy, full orange coloring, large and lasting ivory head above.

In the nose: Bursting with bold citrus-y goodness. Grapefruit, orange, lemon and such, with a slice of pine. Just a trace of the tropical, subtle nods from pineapple and mango.

In the mouth: Blast of bitterness right off the bat, then comes the fresh, juicy citrus flavor, ultimately ending on a dry note. Clean malt mouthfeel, long lasting bitterness, grips the palate tight.

Once again, I'm taking my notes with the sixth bottle from the pack. Might go back for more before it disappears.

Our 3RD collaboration with the Mighty Amon Amarth! Inspired from the song “Skoll and Hati” from their newest album Berserker. Skoll and Hati were vicious wolves born of Fenrir. In North Mythology, they chased the sun and the moon creating night and day. For HATI, The Hater, who chases the Moon, we brewed a HAZY IPA – A very hoppy unfiltered IPA with loads of tropical and citrus aromas and flavors including pineapple, mango, lemongrass and grapefruit.

From the iron moors of Jutenheim

Arose Two Wolves of wrath innate

Skoll and Hati were their names

Born of Fenris, born of Hate
