Lagunitas Sucks Imperial IPA

What a stupid name for a beer. Stupid name, good beer. Lagunitas, new to the Nebraska market has consistently put out some good stuff. "Sucks" pours a deep amber hue with a tall, quickly disappearing head. There's lots of grapefruit and pine from the hops, but it's also very sweet and malty, a good balance. Plenty of orange peel bringing up the rear as well. As I drink it down honey and tangerine are emerging from the overall generic sweetness. Fairly full bodied. Goes down nicely on this pre-Spring day.
