22A. Double IPA
An intensely hoppy, fairly strong pale ale without the big, rich, complex maltiness and residual sweetness and body of an American barleywine. Strongly hopped, but clean, dry, and lacking harshness. Drinkability is an important characteristic; this should not be a heavy, sipping beer.

I gotta be honest, I decided on this one because, well, I am worth it... and the high ABV. I also had to get this one to see if they are worth it for you as well. I hope you see how I am sooo helpful. On to the scores!
Aroma: A masterly created piney resinous aroma mixed in with a multitude of citrus flavors... mainly of mango and pineapple. Hints of melon as well. 8.3
Appearance: It looks like pineapple juice with pulp due to the haziness of the brew. Has a thin white head that persists even though it's not thick. 8.6
Mouthfeel: Saturates the entire mouth with a lingering melon sweetness. Not dry but still quite refreshing. 8.2
Overall: I was not expecting the melon flavor mixed with the citrus fruits. It lent for some added complexity and went very well together. A solid offering from Noble. It's also the first time I have had anything from Noble... it definitely won't be the last time though. Highly recommend. 8.5
Matt's mark: 4.24/5
