Deschutes Royal Fresh Imperial IPA.
9% ABV, 70 IBU. Deschutes Brewing, Bend, OR.
Clear, bright golden color, slim white head.
In the nose: Expressive fruit, citrus and stone, sweetness supreme, touch of bitter.
In the mouth: Massive mouth, big time bitterness, hops launch an assault upon the palate. Juicy, and turning hot. Alcohol rises. Candied fruit. Apricots and oranges, pineapple and tangerine. Medium bodied, long bitter finish. It's a big ol' hop bomb. Big and boozy, just the way I like 'em.
Get a taste of hop royalty with this juicy juggernaut featuring big, tropical hop flavors and a deceptively smooth finish. 7 hop additions across 6 points of the brewhouse and fermentation add 5lbs/barrel of hops to this majestic brew.
