Arctic Panzer Wolf
Imperial IPA
9% ABV
Appearance: Pours a rich, hazy golden orange with a big three fingers of creamy, fluffy off-white foam.
Smell: A wonderful bouquet of soft, ripe mango, juicy pineapple, and faint strawberry greet the nose. There's also a light yeasty, cracker-like aroma hiding under the blanket of fruity hops. Quite heavenly.
Taste: Bright, tangy grapefruit, tangerine, orange marmalade, pine, some fruity esters and a touch of honey with a caramel malt backing. Sugary with light traces of white wine lurking about.
Mouthfeel: Medium to heavier bodied and lightly crisp with incredible smoothness. Sort of creamy and a bit oily and chewy.
Overall, this was an exceptional imperial IPA from famed Indiana brewery Three Floyds. I had this back to back with their Dreadnaught and Arctic Panzer Wolf came out the clear winner for me. It has a wonderfully complex,
fruity aroma and flavor with unbeatable
smoothness for a 9% beer. Juicy, sweet,
and well-balanced. Top notch.
