I picked up a four-pack of Deadlift the other night while waiting for the Steam Face to finish carbonating. It's still got another few days at minimum. So I had seen this on Widmer's website before, but hadn't seen it in the store. It's interesting that it's sold in four packs instead of six packs. Anyways, it's a newer Imperial IPA offering, adding to their Broken Halo IPA, which has long been a favorite at my house.
Taste: Awesome. Lots of malt with really nice hop accenting. This would fit the double IPA category with the body and big taste.
Hoppiness: Decent. Not quite as much as Green Flash's West Coast IPA, but few can compete with that.
Drinkability: Very good. Smooth and malty.
The Bottom Line: Get some of this if you see it. If you like big bodied Double IPA's, you'll be a happy camper (especially if you're going camping).
