“A Very Hoppy Ale” is the description given this beer by its maker, Victory Brewing.  And a big, (8.5% ABV) hoppy beer it is indeed.  It’s an Imperial IPA but the scale is tipped way over to the hoppy side.  There’s very little sweetness in this ale.  It’s got a floral nose and some pine in the finish, and a medium to heavy body.   Victory makes some really good beers, and this one is no exception.
