Moody Ales Boss Juice American Double / Imperial IPA at 8.3% ABV | 80 IBU (C$4.27 at Collective, 473 ml, no packaging date or best before, acquired 22-Feb-2019, reviewed 24-Feb-2019)
Appearance: opaque pale gold with one fat finger of loose ivory head diminishing gradually to a thin cap and ring, spotty lacing. (4/5) Aroma: big juicy tropical fruit & citrus, bready caramel, mild pine. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate-high bitter. (8/10) Palate: medium body, moderate carbonation, off-dry lingering bitter finish. (4/5)
Big time juice here, in appearance, aroma, and taste. Sort of a NEDIPA (DNEIPA?) except for the fairly big bitterness that comes to play and hangs around for a while. On the other hand, the big(gish) booze doesn’t factor at all. (16/20)
