Ninkasi Megalodom Triple IPA (Picked up at Windmill Farms). A 3 of 4. Yep, this is a 10% IPA. Mostly tropical fruit and a touch of pine on the nose, and the body is quite bold on the bitterness front, and the alcohol is noticeably present. This is not unexpected, but it's definitely on the bitter side in terms of balance -- there is some malty sweetness to balance, but it's not enough.

Not my favourite to be honest. I find the hops overpowering and “chemically”.

There are three kinds of insufferable nerds and you can tell the difference by asking them what they think IPA stands for

I remember finally finding Steve Austin's Broken Skull IPA, and being so excited to finally try it. Then I did and... eh. It tastes like an IPA made for people who only drink pilsners and lagers. A very frustrating lack of flavor.
I want my IPAs to feel like I am being assaulted by a coniferous forest, with a palate as bitter as the world itself.

Sierra Nevada Hop Bullet Magnum Edition Imperial IPA (Picked up at Trader Joe's). A 3 of 4. As you'd expect, lots of grapefruit pith, pine and resin are dominant, and this feels quite a bit old-school. There's far more caramel malt sweetness and orange in the body than I was expecting, and then an aggressive dry bitterness in the finish. More aggressive on the palate than you'd probably expect.
