Three Floyds Dreadnaught Imperial IPA

Three Floyds. There's really nothing more to say than that. Unfortunately for those of us on the East coast it is almost impossible to find within a reasonable distance. Recently I was in in the Indianapolis area and decided to pick something of theirs up to try when I got back home, and this was it.

This brew pours clear golden yellow with a thin white head, very close knit carbonation bubbles and little to no lacing. The aroma is of pure hops - flowers, citrus, peaches, pine tree. Very sweet and bitter front. The taste is not much different from the aroma and starts off with a nice bitterness that quickly fades into an orange citrus and floral finish. Quite good, and a decent amount better than the Stone Ruination IPA in the taste and texture departments.

Appearance - 3.8
Smell - 4.0
Taste - 4.3
Texture - 4.3
Overall - 4.1/5
