Unfiltered Imperial India Pale Ale Fortem is a new-age imperial IPA that draws upon a range of influences, all while exhibiting DNA from our own forays into the IPA style. As such, it blends newer hop varieties from the Pacific Northwest and Hallertau, Germany along with pale malt, wheat malt and flaked oats for a full body and rounded mouthfeel. Fortem presents an expressive mix of aromas, including mango, blueberry, raspberry, lime zest and lychee. After time in the glass, it opens up to reveal stone fruit blossoms and mandarin oranges, finishing with just enough bitterness to encourage your next sip. Fortem has been left unfiltered for a hazy appearance and full hop impact. MALTS: Two Row, Wheat, Oats, Dextrose HOPS: Cascade; Whirlpool— Mandarina, Citra, Simcoe; Dry Hops— Mosaic, Simcoe, Citra, Blanc

    Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 8

    16 oz can. Pours slightly hazy straw gold with a big fluffy white head that retains well and leaves some lacing.

    The aroma is sweet lemony citrus fruit with some bready malt with a little resiny hops.

    The flavor is sharp sweet lemon citrus fruit with a bready malt backbone and a resiny bitter finish. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with smooth carbonation.

    Overall, a nice fruity DIPA.
