Lupulin Radiant Roadrunner Double Dry-Hopped Triple IPA.
11% ABV, Lupulin Brewing, Big Lake, MN.
Nearly clear, hardly any haze. Bright golden hue. Fine layer of ivory froth atop.
In the nose: bold citrus with a sidecar of stone. Some sweetness. Overripe fruit notes hint at oncoming high alcohol.
In the mouth: Boom! Bam! This one is not shy in the slightest. Barley-wine-esque. Rich and potent. High hops, big bitterness. Chock full o’ hoppy goodness. Malt is also in full effect, big and juicy, ending nice and dry.
This is exactly how a triple IPA should taste. I love the way it’s hot hoppiness nestles on the palate. Sublime.
Meep Meep! Back up octopus, Radiant Roadrunner is here to drop an anvil on your head!
Simcoe dankness blends with the tropical pineapple and coconut notes of Sabro, while El Dorado adds notes of melon and citrus, all backed up with a soft and smooth malt base of spelt and 6 row.
