I got my first sample of Bale Breaker’s Mount Saint Humulus yesterday. This is a world class Imperial IPA and a perfect example of the West Coast style. IMO, better than Pliny. The aroma is resinous. The texture and flavors are resinous. It is a beer to sip and savor. This is the only beer I have given 5 stars to on Untappd. If you happen across it on tap somewhere (and you like the style) DON’T pass it up. Here is what they say about it:
Triple IPA - 9.6% ABV | 100++ IBU
Brewed as a part of the WA Hop Mob, the first Triple IPA brewed by Bale Breaker hits like a volcanic eruption of the finest Yakima Valley hops. Experience an explosion of hop aroma in each sip, thanks to a heavy dry-hop addition of Mosaic™, Equinox™, and Citra®. Be careful, folks… Mount Saint Humulus just might blow your top right off.
