From Moylan’s Brewery & Restaurant – In celebration of the Hop… This is a “Hop” tribute, worthy of a King’s Imperial Court! Enjoy the blast of fresh Tomahawk, Cascade and Centennial Hops as they stimulate the taste buds in a truly imperial fashion. Pucker Up!

Note – Used to be labeled as Moylan’s Hopsickle Imperial India Pale Ale up until recently.

Appearance: Pours a clear, yet dark copper body with a foamy, cream colored head. The head starts out at 2 inches, and subsides to a creamy 1 inch after a few minutes of rest.

Aroma: Fresh cut pineapple, grapefruit, and a small touch of pine.

Taste: A mixture of bitter hops and a big mouthful of caramel malt. Leaves a bitter hop aftertaste after the sweetness fades away. The pineapple I found in the aroma also peaks its head in and out.

Mouthfeel: Heavy, thick, syrupy and creamy. Very carbonated as well giving it a spicy fizzy texture.

Overall: Anyone looking for a real bitter beer can look no further. An insane amount of bitter and dry hopping went into this, as well as tons of malt.  I true example of a well made California Imperial IPA.
