Squatters Hop Rising Double IPA
Pours a tangerine-orange, with a thin white head. Peach and citrus aromas right off the bat. The 9% ABV and 75 IBU's would guaran-damn-tee that this baby would make the trip around the cape and over to India without any problems...in fact, wasn't this the beer that Neil Armstrong took to the moon? No? Well, the Mars mission for sure! The hops are strong, but not astringent, citrussy rather than piney, and integrated well with the malt character. There's a little bit o' mango in the mix, and maybe some ripe pineapple. Goes down smooth despite the double assault of ABV and IBU...handle with care.
