torpedo extra ipa


Sierra Nevada Torpedo is a bold and full flavored beer. This Extra IPA is full of hops and extremely robust. IPA's history stems from an ale that is flavored with bitter hops and flavored for export to India via the Dutch East India Trade Company. The flavoring was considered a to be an effect of the higher alcohol content, which is not necessarily correct. The demand for this type of beer became popularized in the US as with other liquors during early immigration. Sierra Nevada doubled the hops which is proven in its name Extra IPA. The Flavor is amber in color, bitter, and with citrus and pine notes that leaves a mildly tart after taste. It still remains slightly syrupy and fresh, an extremely drinkable beer.
