10.27 - OTWOA

I seriously love my connections..


DC Brau - On The Wings Of Armageddon.
a 9.2% ABV  ~115 IBU Double IPA.   I've tried this a few times at fests, but just happy to finally have cans for myself.  A super bold orange pour with strong malty notes and a pungent piney hop profile.  Orange zest and piney resin.. caramel malts.. the hops dominate the nose in a bold fashion.  They grab ahold and let nothing else in.  As for the taste.. well again, the hops dominate.  Thicker orange peel and piney resin flavors comprise the body.  This is just a hop monster.   A very "East Coast" DIPA as the malts play a huge role in the body and finish, giving a ton of caramel sweetness and stronger-than-expected booze bite.  Just a monster of a DIPA, on the tropical/fruity side but with giant piney notes.   Good fresh and still good even with a few months of her

- - 9 Hops!
