King Julius

King Julius, Tree House Brewing Company, Monson, MA
(Imperial/Double IPA, Rated 99)

Don't mind the white label, this is King Julius. Not sure if the ink was so fresh it rubbed off during shipping or what. What really matters is what's in the can! If Julius is one of the best IPAs around, his big brother, King Julius, is one of the best IIPAs around.

King Julius pours a cloudy, murky orange that looks like glass of fresh, pulpy, orange juice. Light, pillowy, white head. Pungent citrus aromas, tropical, and a bit dank. The flavor is like a glass of juice, light sweetness, little bit of bitterness, not harsh at all. So smooth, creamy mouthfeel, and super juicy.  Tad dry in the finish. Cannot tell this is 8.3% abv. Fantastic! Tree House continues to kill it!
