Maximus is our Colossal take on a Double IPA. Full of Simcoe and Cascade hops balanced against tons of rich malted barley—a bed of smooth malted wheat, biscuity Munich malt, and English Crystal. Maximus’ massive dry-hop bill entertains with spice, floral, and berry notes.
There is a tide in the affairs of big, “Double” IPAs, which posits that a flood of hops leads to a fortune in liquid. In our XXV+ years of brewing big IPAs, we’ve learned this to be mostly true, with one big caveat: balance is everything. We believe Maximus to be precisely that. Et tu?
