Sierra Nevada Big Little Thing Imperial IPA is a powerful India Pale Ale with 9% alcohol content. Despite its strength, the beer is surprisingly balanced. The flavor is intensely hop-forward, with fruity notes of pineapple, mango, and citrus, accompanied by a light malt sweetness that gives the beer body and depth. The bitterness is noticeable but not overwhelming, which is rather unusual for an Imperial IPA and makes the beer more approachable. With its full aroma and smooth texture, this beer is aimed at lovers of strong, aromatically complex IPAs.
