Conductor Imperial India Pale Ale
Big . . . hops . . . must have . . . big hops. A deep light tan head fills the tulip and takes its good sweet time receeding. A consistent thick sheet of lace is left behind. Color is a dirty gold. A good hit of citrus hops strikes the nose, with some underlying spice showing through. On the palate some oranges and grapefruit surround the hops, and mellow the bite just a bit, but it's still a hop bomb. Some malts show up toward the end. Mouth-feel is on the heavy side of medium, and it's well-carbonated. While this might not be the the most adventuresome imperial/double IPA around, it certainly holds it's own.
