So the common consensus on Sierra Nevada of late has been pretty bloody positive.
Enter Torpedo Extra IPA, which certainly pulls things back to earth with a thud, exhibiting the same sort of problems as the stardard pale ale. It's too fizzy, and too artificially sweet candy tasting.
There's also a lack of blasting hops for mine. It's kind of a standard IPA level I guess but where's the "Extra"? Where's the torpedo? At least it's up there in ABV - but then it seems looking at ratebeer, it's oddly rated through the roof by the wider community much like the pale ale. This is mystifying to me.
A bit meh overall. I find myself putting this in with Squires, and that's never a good sign. Buy the Rye IPA instead. 5.5
