Founders - Devil Dancer

Founders most complex, most innovative, most feared and yet most revered ale produced. Massive in complexity the huge malt character balances the insane amount of alpha’s used to create this monster. More IBU’s than any brewery has documented (except DFH), more than you would believe and dry-hopped for twenty-six days straight with a combination of 10 hop varieties. Dangerously drinkable and deliciously evil. We dare you to dance with the Devil. 112 IBUs.

The ABV is 12.0 and the IBU rating is 112
Style - Imperial IPA
Glass to use- Snifter, Tulip or Oversized Wine Glass
Delivery 12oz Bottle

Can be cellared for long periods, under the proper conditions.

The Pour - Pours a copper color with a tan head. Good lacing.
Aroma - Strong hops in the room after popping the cap, grassy and spicy.
Taste -  Sweet, citrus fruits, some malts and spices.
Mouth Feel - Medium carbonation, full body.  Slight hoppy after taste, creamy and smooth.
Drinkable - My first triple IPA (I think).  I like it, a hop heads delight.  Some heat from the alcohol. 

This beer pairs well with cheese and white meats.

This beer gets a Duper rating of A-.
BeerAdvocate Rating =B+
Ratebeer Rating =99
