A very dark, sweet, full bodied, slightly roasty ale. Often tastes like sweetened espresso. Dark roasted grains and malts dominate the flavour and provide coffee and chocolate flavours. Hop bitterness is moderate. Body is a heavy sweetness and creaminess from the lactose. Balances out the bitterness and roasted character and lasts into the finish.

Combining the styles of the Belgian Tripel and an Imperial IPA, this leads to a mixture of great flavours from spicy, floral, citrusy, and hoppy. Pale and dry, this brew will be refreshing and drinkable despite it's higher strength. High on bitterness. Expect fruity flavours, spiciness and floral from the variety of late addition hopping.

The American IPA started out on the West Coast for the access to citrusy, grapefruit, and pine flavoured hops. That was decades ago, and now the style is among the most popular craft beer styles. And for good reason. Amazing bright hops lead to a vast array of juicy hop flavours and bitterness. Also a style served best fresh, and you can't get any fresher than brewing your own!
