The Steel Toe Brewing Company is in St. Louis Park, Minnesota. This triple IPA is 11% ABV and has 111 IBU's. I think this big boot is gonna stomp on me.
The beer pours a glowing copper and amber in color. There is about an inch of thick off-white head. The aroma is both sweet and tart, almost vinous, with a tangy fruitiness, like passion fruit. The taste is a flash of tart fruit and sweet malt, immediately vaporized by the massive bitterness, with a spicy finish. There is so much going on, it all cancels itself out. The hops and boozieness add a bit of a hot sting. Easier drinking than Founders Devil Dancer triple, but not quite as much going on in the flavor department.
