Ninkasi Brewing Company Tricerahops Double IPA American Double / Imperial IPA at 8% ABV ($8.79 at Willow Park Wine & Spirits, 650ml, no bottle date or best before)
Pours slightly hazy pale amber with two fingers of light tan head, good retention and lacing. (4/5) Nose is zesty citrus and resiny pine, light caramel malt and some light floral. (4/10) Taste is moderate sweet, strong bitter. (8/10) Medium body, moderate to low carbonation, lingering bitter finish. (4/5)
Nice double IPA. Bright and citrusy, big hop bomb. Marginally hop forward, with decent caramel malt supporting. Hardly a memorable DIPA, but certainly passable. (16/20)
8/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
