Hellhound on My Ale(2013)-Dogfish Head Brewing
From the brewers/label:
"Hellhound is a super-hoppy ale that hits 100 IBUs in the brewhouse and 10% ABV. It's dry-hopped with 100% Centennial hops at a rate of 100 kilos per 100 barrel brew-length. Can you tell we're stoked for this mighty musical centennial?
To accentuate and magnify the citrusy notes of the Centennial hops (and as a shoutout to Robert Johnson's mentor Blind Lemon Jefferson), we add dried lemon peel and flesh to the whirlpool."
Tens and powers thereof are wild in this IIPA. Poured a cloudy orange-yellow from the 750 ml bottle shared by August West last PM, the immediate nose was freshly grated lemon zest and citrus aromas. First tasting impression was also citrusy with some brown sugar, caramel and again, lemon. Interesting IBU rating with the statement above but on their website listing 58. This accompanied first courses last PM of slaw, wings and early choppings of our pig. It aged nicely.
