Commercial Description:
The latest specialty beer to come out of the Corner Brewery is our Arborealis Double IPA. This extremely hoppy beer is 7.6% ABV and has 83 IBU’s. The hop bitterness is balanced by a ton of hop flavor and aroma resulting from several late addition hop charges and by dry-hopping with 1 pound of hops per barrel. The predominant hop used in this beer is Aurora, hence the name Arborealis.

On tap. Hazy medium orange body, thin off-white head. Hoppy nose, bitter and citrusy. Sweet, resinous body with grapefruit and other citrus, backed by caramely malt. Bitter finish. Sticky, slippery, and oily. The peculiar viscosity is quite distracting.

MiBG Summer Fest 2009, Friday Session: (at the Corner Brewery booth) Deep golden hue with a small head. The aroma has notes of grassy and herbal hops, some pine and grapefruit esters, biscuity grains, and a touch of mineral water. The taste is pretty well balanced with bitterness versus maltiness. There was a metallic astringent character about the herbal finish. The mouth feel is a tad thin for the flavor profile. A very average entry into the DIPA style.

Draught at HopCat in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Light golden amber with a thin whispy head. Nice foamy lacing. Fairly mild hoppiness, sweet, floral, a bit piney. Light bodied, light lingering bitterness.
