Comments:  Another fantastic Imperial IPA "hop bomb".  Pours a cloudy orange color with a 1 finger white head, excellent lacing.  Grapefruit & citrus hop aroma.  Huge pine & citrus hop flavor with some caramel malt in the background - smooth & creamy.  9.7% ABV - watch it - anytime your beer is served in a tulip glass -                                 LOOK OUT :)  EXCELLENT!
