---------------------------------------------------------------
Sierra Nevada Torpedo Ale is a big American IPA; bold, assertive and full of flavor and aromas highlighting the complex citrus, pine and herbal character of whole-cone American hops.
Tip - This ale will be best 2 - 4 weeks after kegging (or 3 - 5 weeks after bottling) as the hop aroma will start to fall out.
