An interesting proposition, not a coffee stout, a Cappuccino Stout. Just as the name implies something different than a straight coffee stout.

s_n_torpedo_bottle_smallBeer: Torpedo Extra IPA

Brewery:Sierra Nevada in Chico, California

ABV: 7.2%

Reviewed:
06-May-2009 on Episode 139

Appearance:
Amber with dense white head.

Aroma: The hops aroma come through in the form of grapefruit, orange and floral aromas. There is also a slight sweet malt aroma underlying the hops.

Taste: A sweet malt flavor starts out the taste. Then the hops dominate the flavor. They produce tastes of grapefruit, orange, some floral tastes and a slight pine flavor.

Mouthfeel: Medium light body with medium carbonation.

Aftertaste: There is a lingering taste of citrus in the finish.

Overall: A solid brew with a great variety of hop flavors.

Notes: Nice hoppy beer. We strongly recommend it with spicy foods and a warm day, but it’s nice by itself as well.
