Engrossing copper-toned double-hopped India Pale Ale cannot conceal astringent 10.5% alcohol volume and never skimps on strong whiskey warmth. Colossal pine needled citric-peeled bittering counterbalances sappy maple-spruce stickiness and brown sugared apple-pear-nectar sweetness up-front. Evergreen-freshened grassy-floral hops usurp sinewy honeyed malts to potentially harsh wood-lacquered vodka finish.
