Review - Southern Tier Brewing Company's Un*Earthly Imperial IPA

"An Uninhibited Infusion of Hops. We continue our commitment to innovation with our most aggressive offering yet Unearthly is a manifestation of the brewers crafts skillfully balancing art and the forces of nature to produce a divine liquid. Delicately pour a taste into a fluted glass. Smell the enchanting aromas of the hops come forward as your first sip divulges this beer’s fervent soul. To underestimate Unearthly is to trifle with the mysteries of the universe so please consume wisely." -- Southern Tier Brewing Company

Pours a cloudy dark yellow, settling out to a dark orange hue with a nice, fizzy white head that leaves fair lacing behind. The alcohol is very well masked in the aroma, as we get hints of hops but nothing overwhelming. Grapefruit notes pervade. The initial taste gives a massive hit of hop bitterness, with a tremendous dry texture, settling to a balanced finish that leaves a clean taste. Light to medium bodied, it has a creamy texture that imparts a dry mouthfeel on us with gentle carbonation.
