Commercial Description:
A hophead’s dream beer. This Imperial India Pale Ale has an opening salvo of mango, peach and citrus hop aromas that sit atop a pronounced caramel malt backbone. Although Dreadnaught is a strong and intensely hoppy ale, its complex flavors is both smooth and memorable. 9.5% ABV, 100 IBUs.

Three Floyd’s never disappoints, and this beer is no exception. Perfect blend of citrus hop taste (bitterness) combined with a slightly sweet mango fruit taste. Just a great, full bodied IPA.

Sampled at GABF 2009 - Pours light golden, with a thin white head. Notes of intense citrus aromatics, grapefruit, pine, and tangerine. Full bodied with lively carbonation. Very nice.

Bottle from StFun. Pours a golden amber with a fluffy white head. Has a strong citrus hop smell to it. Has a hoppy citrus pine taste up front with a nice smooth malt backround. Perfectly balanced.

courtesy of hopshunter. Pours golden, white head. Aroma and flavor, lots of hops, plenty of citrus and lemongrass. Some caramel malts come add a nice finish. Overall beer is more on the sweet caramel side than the hop bomb I was expecting. Still a great beer.

Bottle thanks to StFun. Clear golden orange, off white puffy foam. Light lacing. Aroma is a thick citrusy, resinous hop aroma, crystal malt, caramel. Taste is again nice and creamy feel, smooth caramel, oranges and grapefruit, line pine and resin.
