Commercial Description:
This I.P.A. has over double the hops of our pale ale. Exceptionally bitter and dry hopped for even more aroma!

On tap at the brewpub on 6/20/07 as Humulus Lupulus: Pours a transparent, slightly hazy bronze with a thin, airy, wispy-lacing white head. Aroma boasts good piny citrusy hop notes and sweet caramel malt. Body starts lightly sweet with plenty of grapefruity bittering and flavor hops toward a bittersweet citrusy finish.

On tap at the brewery as Humulus Lupulus. Hazy orange body, medium off-white head. Aroma reminded me of Bells Two-Hearted Ale, with plenty of leafy, strong pine and grapefruit hops notes. Soapy, citrusy, piney hops body backed by biscuity, bready malts. Fresh, potent, and crisp with good balance. A winner.

Sampler. After sliding through the "regular" beer samples, we come to the start of the "extreme" beers that couldn’t fit on the sampler paddle! Just a little too light to be taking on the Dreadnaught, but it’s surely sniffing its butt behind. Heavy fresh hop layer from dry hopping. Brutally bitter to keep those aroma hops out of the way.
