Moylans Hopsickle Imperial India Pale Ale

Brewed by Moylans Brewery & Restaurant
Style: Imperial/Double IPA
Novato, California USA

The aroma is very hoppy! Citrus kinda grapefruit with a little flower smell. The head was creamy, white, good lacing and mostly diminishing. The body was cloudy and orange. The flavor was bitter and lasted long. The body was medium, creamy with soft carbonation. A very good beer..

Great IIPA. It has a nice amber clarity, even when chilled. The aroma and taste exude hoppy floral aroma. Buy this if you have a chance.

Clear amber with medium beige head. Hoppy aroma with piney and citric notes. Sweet flavour with loads of hops, pine and grapefruit notes. Solid bitter finish.

22oz. Intense sweet-hop nose.. dark deep pour. Darker than any real IPA Ive seen .. murky, swamp, killer. Thick and rich taste, like hop concentrate. very fresh hop taste, not resinous bitter, more flower than pine. exceptional

Nice orange-yellow color with a nice bubbly head. Very bitter flavor upfront, with potent citrus and pine. The reward is in the finish. Nice lingering memory on the palate.

22oz bomber. Pours a cloudy, deep orange with brown and ruddy red highlights and a thick but shortlived off-white head that leaves large swaths of lace on the glass. The aroma is thick with green, sticky, delicious hops and is cut with a thick malty sweet honey and caramel nose. The flavor begins as a resiny hop jelly with amazing hop character - fruity, citrusy, and spicy. There is an undercurrent of malts - a light toasted breadiness with subtle toffee sweetness. The bitterness is strong, earthy, and citrusy at mid-palate (like dried grapefruit rind). It is slightly resiny at mid-palate with a slight sweetness that helps cut the big bitterness slightly. It all leads to a dry and hoppy finish with some breadiness and a light wood character. The mouthfeel is spritzy - surprisingly firm level of carbonation - with a very thick and full body. A light tingling on the tongue at mid-palate results from the tingly carbon dioxide, ethanol, and extra-firm bitterness. Overall, a super-bad-ass west coast hop-bomb of a brew. Whoah...

Bronze amber with a fluffed, hopped head. This indeed packs a savory blast of hops to clear out the sinuses. Cascades, Columbus, and Chinook are readily apparent. An almost perfect symphony of hop notes from floral to sweet, to fruity, to honeyed, to grapefruit to orange citrus and with a sliver of pine. Sweet and hoppy body with considerable bitterness. For as good as the aroma and flavors are, it is rather unbalanced, overly sweet and resinous, and the alcohol pushes it over the edge. This will knock your socks off.

Bottle from Sams in Durham. This beer is no joke: it is a hop bomb. Fresh, sticky, citrusy, resiny, fruity, big ol hops coming out of this bad boy. The malt can barely stand up to the hops, but that is not really the point, is it? Beautiful deep orange-golden hazy pour with whitish head. Big. Bitter. Surprisingly drinkable. Yum.
