India Pale Ale

Description

Dive into the bold and complex world of Mike's Brewery's India Pale Ale. This IIPA DIPA (Imperial/Double IPA) is a true hop lover's delight, inspired by the hoppy English pale ales but leaning towards the highly hopped American variety. Pouring a rich golden amber with a faint haze and a creamy white head that settles into a fine veil, this beer is a visual treat. The aroma is a captivating blend of tropical fruits, including passion fruit, pineapple, and melons, all vying for your attention. The flavor is nothing short of extraordinary, with the sweet tropical fruits now beautifully balanced by a strong biscuity malt flavor and an absolutely intense hop bitterness. The very full mouthfeel and glowing warm aftertaste serve to further keep the hop bitterness in check, creating a truly harmonious experience. This is an extremely hoppy beer, and those not partial to hops might find it challenging. However, for the true hop heads, this is nectar to be savored. Serve it chilled in small stemmed goblets and sip on it during cool autumn evenings. Respect this beer, as it weighs in at a hefty 9.0% ABV – it's no lightweight and should be shared with good company.
