I drank my whole 22 oz. bomber of Southern Tier Unearthly Imperial IPA tonight. The beer pours a pale amber color with a very small, quickly diminishing white head. Smells of citrus and piny hops. This beer is one big hop bomb. It’s mostly those hops flavors coming through nice and strong with a slight hint of malty sweetness. It’s not for the faint hearted. It’s oily in the mouth with a little bit of carbonation. It’s quite drinkable for an 11% ABV beer. You can’t taste it in the flavor and there’s no alcohol warmness to it. Heck, I didn’t even notice it in my head (though I wasn’t doing anything but watching a movie).
If you like IPAs and Double IPAs, this one is for you. This is a top notch Double IPA and well worth trying again and again.
