Mammoth Brewing '395' IPA

Mammoth Brewing '395' IPA. 8% abv. 50 IBU. This is actually a Double IPA, despite the name. Clear amber color. Decent head and lace. Nose of herbs and dark berries. Taste of bitter berries, pine, and citrus. Complex beer to put it mildly. It's like a mildly hoppy IPA with pine roots soaked in. I can't make up mind whether I like it or not, which is telling in itself.

From the brewery:

"Our ode to the Owens Valley and the Highway 395 corridor, this double IPA is distinctly bolder than our Epic IPA and celebrates the aromas hops, desert sage and mountain juniper. IPA 395 has a unique personality."
