calling the green man

After the weight of those German beers, I was looking for some flash and lightness in the Spanish ones.  Yria's Beerbol, an Imperial IPA, was there to answer the call.  Yria has given light and dark in the past, but the label was the clincher this time.
The dark green, the wild wilderness, it's a label that promises an adventure in a bottle and I'm not passing up the chance as summer approaches.
I swear those eyes follow you
While Imperias IPAs do tend to have a little more color, this one has a very rich red-orange tone.  Could be the cedar, I suppose.  The smell is delicate, just a little bit of orange.  It's bitter, but not overwhelming, with some prickles of sweetness.  The color is clear, not at all cloudy, so the flavor is even throughout the glass.  It's a bit of an appetite stimulant, giving me a hankering for something salty, pretzels maybe.  Now that the temperatures are rising, possibly for good, it's a pleasing beer to have in the evening.  Refreshing, stimulating, relaxing, what more could you want?
