Sierra Nevada Hop Bullet Double IPA. Spring Seasonal. (We're not out of winter yet, over here, sorry, not by a long shot. But we can dream....) 8% ABV. 50 IBU.
Clear, bright golden color, beautiful ivory head, leaving a little lace.
In the nose: Floral, light fruit, softly spreading citrus.
In the mouth: All the hoppy goodness slides on to the palate with grace and style. Pow! It's here. It's a little juicy, it's a lot dry, and it's happening now. Dry, dusty, delicious. I am digging this one. Light bodied, lean malt, nothing but hops. Bring 'em on! Give 'em to me! Hit me up!
Here's one I'll go back to again and again.
Here's some of what they say about this: Hops are the name of the game with a Double IPA, but we knew we had to take it one step further. With Hop Bullet, we’re using a new technique, hitting the beer with a double-barreled blast of Magnum hops and lupulin dust—pure, concentrated hop flavor—directly into the tank to emphasize the intense pine and citrus flavors of classic West Coast hops.
