Hopsickle Imperial India Pale Ale
Not a bad offering from Moylan's here. Poured a very hazy golden copper color with yeast and possibly some hop flecks floating around. The appearance was like taking the HopSlam a couple steps further. Smelled lovely, with mostly piney and some grapefruit hop essence all the way. Taste was good but nothing more. Loads of hops and little use of malts for balance. This is purely for the hopheads out there and should come with a warning label. Mouthfeel is crisp, slightly dry, and attacks the palate with a ton of hops. Tingly is a good word. When I'm looking for a confrontation with one of my good friends (hops) I will approach this beer. Though it doesn't stand up to some of my favorites for all around DIPA's, I enjoy this brew. My only complaint would be a slight lack of balance. Thanks to Talisker for the bottle!
