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.

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.

hoppy smelling, wonderful looking pour- amber colored with thin white head. taste is bitter, so bitter that it is almost unpleasent, but in a weird way it isnt. this is the best IPA i have ever had. this is my new favorite beer, that will be included in every order i place online. WONDERFUL beer. alcohol is hidden pretty well, yet it will take a while to drink this. SO good.

Beautiful, the dark burnt color is amazing, lots of balanced, rounded malt flavors with volatile hop aromas, some mealy flavors, milky, and vegatal, I don't mean any of these in a bad way. This is stunningly good. Again, lots of flavors leaking out in this incredibly balanced, low acid, brew.

Bottle. Light amber color with a small white head. Nice hoppy aroma. Full sweet malty body with a balance bitterness. Hoppy and dry bitter palate. Very nice.

Bottle. Hazy golden body with a medium creamy white head. The aroma is very fruity. I catch banana, peach, pine and citrus. Sweet malty flavour with lots of fresh fruit like banana and peach. Ends up piney and fruity. Medium bodied. Overall its very well crafted and is very balanced.

courtesy of the hink, aged 3 years, how odd, but still amazing! ... hops have held up well, and the kick is still there, the malt has intensified and has given this beer a great rounded sweetness .. aged: wonderful, fresh: we will see...

Pours a hazy orange color with white head. A wonderful hop aroma, bitter grapefruit aroma. Nice malts that balance this beautiful grapefruit, grassy, bitter hop finish. Great mouthfeel for such a hoppy IIPA. Without a doubt the best IIPA I have ever had.
