Imperial IPA
Imperial IPA (or Double IPA) is a stronger, more intense version of the traditional IPA with significantly higher hop character and alcohol content. Originating in the American craft beer movement of the 1990s, this style showcases bold hop aromas and flavors ranging from citrus, pine, and tropical fruit to resinous and dank, balanced by a substantial malt backbone. Typically brewed with generous amounts of American hop varieties and a clean fermenting yeast to highlight the hop complexity.
