      60 IBU. Bright deep golden. Big thick head. Perfumey hop aroma. Medium body. Big perfumey hop flavor with a resiny bitterness. Maybe some DMS, or maybe it's just the hops. Not as obnoxious as the 90 Minute IPA. Thanks to Jay Jackson for the bottle!

      Overall Impression (3)
      "An Imperial India Pale Ale", at 90 IBU. This beer is a deep copper color, very hazy, with a good head. It has a big citrusy herbal floral fruity hop aroma, and quite a bit of caramel. Huge malty body. Huge citrusy spicy hop flavor. Huge bitterness start to finish. It's a Hop Monster, but there's too much of everything…maybe after a couple years' aging it might mellow out some.

      Overall Impression (2)
