Name – Lagunitas Maximus
Country – United States
Type – American Double IPA

Appearance – Pours a clear amber color with a good sized white head that laced the glass a little bit.

Smell – A very faint hop smell to it.

Taste – Earthy hops with a slight malt backing.  Didn’t really have a punch like a double IPA normally would.

This one didn’t really have characteristics of a double IPA to me.  It wasn’t big on hops or malts and the scent was just barely there.  Also at 7.5% ABV I tend to see most DIPAs around the 10% area.  This just came across as a decent IPA to me.

Overall Grade – C-
