Sierra Nevada Torpedo Extra IPA (pack of 6) (35.5cl, 7.2%)

Torpedo is an Extra IPA from Sierra Nevada Brewing in Chico, California, at 7.2% ABV and 65 IBU. It was the first beer built around the brewery's Hop Torpedo, a projectile-shaped dry-hopping chamber packed with about 75 pounds of whole-cone hops. The beer circulates through it to bring out aroma and flavour without adding bitterness. Citra, Crystal and Magnum hops sit over caramelised and two-row pale malts. The nose is pronounced, with citrus, pine and tropical fruit. On the palate, assertive hop flavour is balanced by caramel malt sweetness, with some herbal character. The finish is firmly bitter, and the hop aroma lingers beyond it.
