Imminent Brewing The Quick and the Red IPA. 7% ABV. 70 IBU. Imminent Brewing, Northfield, MN.
Clear, bright reddish tint, huge head, long-lasting meringue, leaving lace. Quite lovely.
In the nose: Highly hopped. Grassy. Herbal. "Dank." Citrus and pine apparent. Sweet malt present and accounted for, also.
In the mouth: Big bitterness up front that lasts long on the palate. Caramel malt takes center stage soon. I'm not terribly keen on caramel malt in IPAs, but it works here, and I'm liking it. A little bit of roast and traces of cocoa. Malt sweetness never outpaces the hops. Medium-bodied, full-flavored, heavy on the hoppiness. Can't help but like this one. It's right where I want an IPA to be.
Our second hopalicious creation, this red IPA couldn’t wait any longer to get into your glass! Some caramel malt sweetness with a touch of roast and a firm American-hop flavor yields to a bouquet of floral, piney, and citrus aromas! Enjoy!
