It\u2019s nice seeing Brew Dog beers on the shelf locally. Poured into a Hill Farmstead Glass at 38 Degrees F\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A &#8211; 3-Finger coffee color head, Deep dark amber color beer, SRM of 29 or more. Very dark for an IPA\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>S &#8211; Yeah, very big hop profile on the nose. banana, blueberries, pine needles, pine cones and tangerines.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>T &#8211; Holy moly. Intense bitterness. It\u2019s almost too high of an IBU to drink. Reminds me a lot of the Mikkeller 1000 IBU I had last month. Not a lot of fruit profile left from the hops, intense bitterness, heavy malt profile and earthy taste at the back of the tongue\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>M &#8211; 100% carbonation, heavy body, dry finish\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>O &#8211; 85\/100. It\u2019s not that great. Not very drinkable and a disappointment for a Mikkeller and Brew Dog collaboration but these things do happen\u00a0<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a title=\"View 'I Hardcore You - BrewDog - Fraserburgh, United Kingdom' on Flickr.com\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/44048128@N00\/7149569421\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7109\/7149569421_f0794b941a_z.jpg?resize=480%2C640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"I Hardcore You - BrewDog - Fraserburgh, United Kingdom\" width=\"480\" height=\"640\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View 'I Hardcore You - BrewDog - Fraserburgh, United Kingdom' on Flickr.com\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/44048128@N00\/7003477126\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8009\/7003477126_7771c29b79_z.jpg?resize=480%2C640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"I Hardcore You - BrewDog - Fraserburgh, United Kingdom\" width=\"480\" height=\"640\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"3.1 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0AROMA\u00a06\/10\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0APPEARANCE\u00a03\/5\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0TASTE\u00a06\/10\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0PALATE\u00a04\/5\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0OVERALL\u00a012\/20 adamjackson\u00a0(248)\u00a0&#8211; Canaan, USA &#8211; MAY 6, 2012 Picked this up at Hunger Mountain Co-Op.
