Spared No Expense v5
8.0% Imperial IPA / Double IPA
Bring home the green once more with this filthy rich DIPA, bursting at the purse strings with hoppy madness. Staggeringly have spared no expense with a 20g/L dry hop addition of Nelson Sauvin, Citra, and Galaxy. So invest in the freshness and let it trickle down your throat with quantitive ease. You know it makes cents.
Houblon : Citra, Galaxy, Nelson Sauvin

3.7
A bright yellow colour and completely opaque with no head left behind after a minute or two. On the nose is abundance of hops, fresh green and juicy fruit. Sharp grapefruit, lime and mandarin, white grape, pine and alcohol. In the mouth it's syrupy with noticeable alcohol taste straight away. It transitions from sweet to bitter from the start to the pine finish. I expect the flavours to develop over time but also this is the last beer of my box and is several weeks old. It's tangy with golden grapefruit via the Citra and the softer taste of mandarin, a touch of lime and at this stage the Nelson white grape and gooseberry are hiding. Now it's thoroughly warmed and breathed the flavour is stronger, still not huge on Nelson compared to the beer I had before this one the other day. Tangy and dank with pine, gooseberry is coming through, mandarin is stronger as is the golden grapefruit. Still not my favourite DIPA, but the alcohol taste is basically covered now, strong with hops.
