Commercial Description:
Überhoppy Imperial IPA: Hops, hops glorious hops! There is no mistaking what this beer is; soft and delicate it is not. Überhoppy is meant to completely overwhelm you with resinous, floral, citrus and herbal hops barely balanced by a huge amount of malt that keeps the Lupulin onslaught from resulting in complete palate destruction. If you do not like hops, Überhoppy is NOT the beer for you, do us all a favor and either give this beer to someone with the intestinal fortitude to appreciate it or put it down and walk away. Überhoppy is brewed with 10 different hop varieties and a complete and utter disregard for common logic or sanity. Please consume this beer as soon as possible to ensure maximum hop freshness. Approximately 9.5% ABV.

Bottle thanks to bman1113VR. The look is amber in color, clear, and has a biege colored head. The smell is fruits, hops, tropical fruits mix, and caramel. The taste is some many different fruits, hops, nice bitterness. Good brew.

Bottle shared by Miketd - thanks! Pours clear medium amber with a half finger beige head. The nose is pine and malt. The taste is bitter resin, caramel, light citrus and toffee. Medium mouthfeel. Sweeter than expected but still a very nice DIPA. Thanks again Mike!

Bottle shared my Mike. Thanks Mike! Pours orange with off white head. Aroma is pine needle resin. If you grind up pine needles and squeeze out the resins from those needles you know what this beer smells like. Course mouthfeel. Flavor is what you would expect. Upfront pine needle hop flavor. Like I was sipping on a brew made with rosemary. It finishes with a malt sweetness I found surprising. A solid beer.

Bottle thanks to Rciesla for sharing. This hop bomb is on point when fresh. Amber pour with white head. Floral, citrus, grapefruit, chewy notes, with a slight warming. Would be a perfect autumn beer.

Bomber of hoppiness. Pours an amber body with a white head. Big hoppy grapefruit, pine, citrus, bitter earthy resins. Mild warming with a decent malt bill. Floral hoppiness and citrus to boot. Awesome brew.

Sweet, hoppy, powerful aroma reminiscent of cascade and amarillo hops. Spicy, hoppyness dominates flavor as well. Smooth clean mouthfeel, with a nice aftertaste.

Bottle. Poured a deep amber. Nicely malted so the hops don’t blow you away. Some really nice spice notes distinguish this beer, along with delicious hoppyness. this the real deal nicely carbed nicely balanced great bitter finish

Dark orange color with a fluffy head. Aroma is not as big as the flavor. Some pine and citrus hops bordering semi tropical. Flavor is very bitter and oily bit a big body and tons of grapefruit and pine earthy hops. Lingering but nice. Very well balanced.
