Alchemy Hour Double IPA

Alchemy Hour Double IPA, Great Lakes Brewing Company, Cleveland, OH
(Imperial/Double IPA, Rated 99)

Keeping with the strong imperial IPA theme, this offering from Great Lakes is fantastic. Nice copper, orange pour. Strong citrus, grapefruit aroma with hints of tropical fruits and honey. Taste is all hops with tangy, bitter fruits, resin, sweet caramel malts, and honey. Medium bodied and not overpowering. Well balanced. Not as high of an alcohol content as some imperials but the 9.4% warms the throat. Great Lakes makes some really great beer and this is one of them!
