Hop & Barrel 5th Triple IPA.
10% Alc./Vol. 85 IBU. Triple India Pale Ale, Hop & Barrel Brewing, Hudson, WI.
Clouded, bright golden hue, lasting white head, leaving some lace.
In the nose: Fruity, spicy, floral. Citrus and pine. Dank. Pungent.
In the mouth: Boom! Hop Bomb! Aggressive, potent, powerful. Just juicy enough, but quickly turning to the dry side. Resiny, oily, flush with happiness. All the citrus, a touch of the pine, much of the green. High alcohol rises up to match the depth and the power of the alpha acids.
Yow. Big bitterness and big booze make a damned good beer. A decadent little treat. I'll be back for more.
The first beer in our Brew Like A Girl series, crafted by women from start to finish, is a massive triple IPA.
