This imperial IPA boasts a deranged abundance of hops, unleashing vibrant notes of citrus, pine, and pungent dankness. Beneath the hop-forward power lies an equally intense backbone of malted barley, imparting rich caramel and toffee tones with a silky depth. The interplay of sharp bitterness and malt sweetness creates balance, while the warming finish reminds you of its commanding strength.
