Driftwood Brewery is located in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. On the bottle of this Fat Tug IPA it says "With an extreme power to tonnage ratio, this behemoth delivers a barge load of hops. This unassuming 22 ounce bottle 80 IBUs of unrelenting diesel power! Let this Fat Tug pull you in slow and low to Hoppy Nirvana..." With that intro, you must expect some serious hop flavour and it doesn't dissapoint.
The colour is clear and deep golden, with a strong white foamy head, which clings to the side of the glass as you sip.
The aroma is fruity and hoppy, giving the feeling this isn't your everyday IPA.
It starts with clean and hoppy notes, with the fruitiness of the aroma pushed into the middle of the taste. It finishes clean with a nice lingering of the hops and fruity citrus notes.
It has a nice smooth mouthfeel, a silky texture that just fades away after your sip.
Overall it's a very nice IPA, with the strong hop taste of the style with some nice citrus over tones that make it feel quite refreshing.
