Three Floyds BrooDoo

Brewed by Three Floyds Brewing Company
Style: India Pale Ale (IPA)
Munster, Indiana USA

22 oz bottle
Thanks to the person who sent me this in a recent trade. I think it was beernbourbon. I’ve been meaning to pick up a bottle of this when friends drive up from Kentucky. It doesn’t disappoint but I think I prefer Alpha King.

Aroma / Appearance - The dense white head was the color of clean birch. The opaque body masked any carbonation in its caramel depths. Spruce, pine, and warm sun tea melded into a solid mixture of hoppiness and sweetness. Three Floyds did not overhop this one at all.

Flavor / Palate - Chewy, the mouthfeel leaves lots of time for inspection. As it trickles across the palate a trail of grass, caramel, and resin create a smooth experience. This is a change of pace from some of the other Three Floyd pale ales but in the end I think I prefer the regular releases.

Bomber. Pours a cloudy amber color with a medium off white head. Nose is sweet hop, pine resin, and caramel. Flavors are mild florals, some citrus and a slight hint of cinnamon. . Maybe it’s the hop variety that is not for me but at times almost taste like shampoo at times.

650mL bottle shared with soccer290. This beer poured a beautiful deep amber color with a nice one finger width white head. It was a very nice pour! The aroma was an excellent mix of hops, citrus, pine, and some faint caramel malt. The taste was similar with a lot of hop and pine character with hints of citrus and malt in the background. The one thing that I really enjoyed about this beer was the mouthfeel. It stuck to my mouth and left a very good aftertaste. It finished a bit bitter though. Overall, a very good IPA by Three Floyds!

22 oz bottle shared with General66. Pours a orange color with a bit of brown and a white head. You can tell just from the pour that it is full-bodied. Smells of pine, citrus, hops, and a little caramel malt. Tastes of citrus and hops, with a full-bodied mouthfeel and a nice aftertaste. Overall good, but I’d much rather a Bells Hopslam or a DFH 90 minute; not worth the cost.

Thanks to Hopscotch for the taste. By this time of the night, I didn’t really know what I was drinking anymore, but I still wrote some notes. Lots of citrus hops in the aroma with a bitter flavor with a slight sweetness.

Rotten Apple tasting. A golden amber color. Sweet floral pine aroma is very nice. Flavor is big time hops. Grapefruit, pine with light caramel. Very bitter aftertaste is long lasting. An excellent IPA.

Bottle shared by hopscotch. Pours clear copper color with off white head. Pine and citrus hop aroma. Bitter hop flavor followed by sweet caramel. Medium body with average carbonation.

copper/orange color. thick white foamy cap. citrus and pine aroma. as well balanced as DFH 90min. but much moree fresh. this is amazing. as bitter as it is refreshing as complex as it is straight forward. this is a total package brew and i love it. yum yum yumy.
