Dogfish Head Liquid Truth Serum IPA

This is four times the fun, with whole leaf, liquefied, pelletized and powdered hops in the mix. That might sound like a lot—or too much—but it all comes across as harmonious, coupling the intense hop tones with the solid malt core. The aromas lead with assertive citrus zest, peach and pineapple notes, with a bitter impression but not overly so. On the palate, the bitterness amps up, and the feel is slightly sticky, but it's balanced by ample carbonation and a sweet caramel-malt presence. Flavors of grapefruit zest and light pine needle kiss the close. Lauren Buzzeo
