Golden Road Brewing 'Wolf Among Weeds' Double IPA. 8.1% abv. 80 IBU. Golden-amber color. Thin white head off the tap. Moderate retention, nice lacing. Nose of sweet light malt, floral hop bouquet, mild citrus. Front taste of bright hops, flowers, sweet bread. Aftertaste of bitter hops, grapefruit rind, candy sugar notes. Medium body. Mouthfeel is warm, bubbly small carb, alcoholic on the back end.
This is an excellent double IPA, with a nice bittersweet balance a fresh hop bite. This brewery is impressing me with each offering. Highly recommended.
From the brewery:
"This beer is a balanced showcase of the majestic hop specie, in Latin, Humulus Lupulus, which translates 'Wolf Among Weeds.' It’s our celebration of California’s enthusiasm for hop-forward IPAs. At 8%, Wolf will sneak up on you from behind the robust citrus and dank earthy hop notes mirrored in its aroma and flavor profile."
