From Lagunitas Brewing – At the height of the heat in the heart of the summer, we felt the only cure was a raging mouthful of fresh Hops and Malt. Caution: May remove enamel from teeth.
Lagunitas Brewing Co. – Maximus IPA – 12 oz. bottle poured into a pint glass.7.2% abv. Purchased at Whole Foods Market Arroyo Pasadena, CA.
Appearance: Pours a clear amber with a fluffy beige head.
Aroma: Light grapefruit and pine.
Taste: Candied grapefruit, turbinado sugar syrup, finishing with earthy bitter hops.
Mouthfeel: Thick.
Overall: A bit too malt forward for my liking. May not have been a fresh bottle, or perhaps this is something border-lining a Double IPA.
