Beer Of The Day

Beer Of The Day: King Sue. Toppling Goliath. Decorah, IA.

(from their site - https://www.tgbrews.com/beers/) "Double India Pale Ale – 8% ABV • 100+ IBU. This lusciously hazy double IPA gains its hits of mango, orange, and pineapple from the use of the delicious Citra hop."

Poured from a 22oz Bomber.

Pours very light in color, and hazy. Aroma hits you before you approach the glass. Citrusy / grapefruit overwhelms you; slightly sweet with a lingering bitterness. Modest white head, no sense of the high gravity of the beer (be careful), no alcohol burn whatsoever.

Clearly a beer for DIPA afficianados, particularly if you prefer IPAs that are citrusy and not too sweet.

Available only selectively in northern Illinois. (I have an insider in Iowa who brings me a regular selection!)

Only available in 22 oz. bombers. Find a friend and share it.

My rating: 4.25/5
Untappd rating: 4.51/5
