American Double / Imperial IPA
By doubling down on the American IPA formula, the American brewers created new levels of hop flavor and intensity.
Generally a pale gold to a deep copper, these beers are sometimes hazy or cloudy if dry hopped or unfiltered. Like the American IPA that it's based on, the flavor profile of this beer can vary - but it is almost always fairly aggressive. Copious American hops - often citrus, piney, and floral - are balanced by a relatively large amount of alcohol and plenty of caramel malts. Hop bitterness is almost universally high, and the ABV is often 7% or above.
The term "Imperial" comes from Russian Imperial Stout, a style of strong beer originally brewed in England for the Russian Imperial Court of the late 1700s. Best served cool, 46-54 degrees, in stemmed tulip, beer snifter, or large wine glass.

Overall:
A burly and bitter Imperial IPA, Rampant pours a pure copper and carries the sheen of a rightly hopped beer. The Mosaic and Calypso hops bring stonefruit to the front seat, and the addition of Centennials nod towards citrus for a well-rounded aroma.

Spring is a time of rebirth, and the writings of Orpheus revolve around this theme. Transmigration of Souls is an irresponsibly hopped Double IPA, bursting with life from an absurd amount of aromatic hops.

That tousled, frizzy hairstyle isn’t fooling anyone. You woke up, threw on some clothes, and headed out the door. Your coworkers stare at your bed head and snicker. But you embrace it, grinning smugly as you sip on your morning coffee.

When you dance with the Devil, the Devil don’t change. You do. Massive in complexity, the huge malt character balances the insane amount of alphas used to create it. At an incredible 112 IBUs, it’s dry-hopped with ten hop varieties. (Description provided by company)

Looks:

Overall:
Up The Creek is mashed in at a low temperature to increase the amount of fermentable sugars while reducing residual sweetness. This creates a hoppy behemoth of a beer with its ABV well hidden under heavy layers of malt.
