Commercial Description:
This big IPA has one pound of dry hops per barrel as well as five different hops used in the boil which give it a huge citrusy hop flavor thoughout. It has an opaque yellow/orange color and a long bitter finish. Brewed in honor of our friend, neighbor and number one seller of our beer Larry Hoppe. Thank You Larry - you will be missed. 9.0% ABV 79 IBUs.

On tap at the brewpub. Subtle hop butter nose, running lemon and other citrus over turpentine. Nice. Clouded pale gold-orange, and a rim of white. Flavor is decent. Nice honey-like balance, between grasses and bread. A really solid, yet mild Imperial IPA. Alcohol is really well integrated and soft. Hops could use a little more flavor, but the bitterness plays nicely off of the sugars. Good.

From 10-Beer Flight at Arbor Brewing Company Brewpub on December 1, 2008. Light amber color. Aroma of citrus and hops. Spicy hop flavor but also very light and subdued, pretty tame for a double IPA. Not too intrusive. Refreshing for the style, very enjoyable.
