A surprisingly balanced double IPA. A pirate without the use of his eyes is a bitter man indeed. And this Blind Pirate’s bitterness is only matched by his boldness. He doesn’t care if you enjoy the citrusy, spicy combination of hops on your tongue, the faint herbal notes in your nose, or the exquisite balance of caramel malts looting your senses. The Blind Pirate is a bold, bitter ale not for the weak in spirit. Just don’t ask him if you can borrow his sight glass. He gets offended. Hops: Simcoe, Willamette, Columbus, and Cascase Grain Bill: Marris Otter as a base malt, with Munich, caramel, and a smidge of wheat

This is the 3rd type of Blind Pirate that I tried, including the regular and blood orange. I liked this better than the regular, but maybe not as much as the blood orange. The extra hop/IBU balances out the malty sweetness,....which I think the regular Blind Pirate could be balanced a little better, so maybe this is what it needs. Good citrus and bitter in there. Not top notch quality but maybe towards the bottom of 2nd tier for this style. Cloudy darker orange to copper appearance. I would sample this again.

Comes out of the growler a beautiful clear mahogany with a thick, fluffy and rather persistent pale wheat head. Aroma rises out of the glass and taps on the nose with a strong hoppy tone that is more resiny than woody. Get closer and grapefruit and a snip of malt make their appearances. Fiercely hoppy flavor assaults the palate with evergreen and bitter woody notes. Quite bitter, so not for the faint of heart - but not so bitter you scream for mommy. Firm, hoppy texture is quite lively and tingly so you feel this one as it heads all the way downstairs. Shiver my timbers, this is some fine grog!
