Grand Teton XX Sweetgrass Double IPA

Brewed by Grand Teton Brewing Co.
Style: Imperial/Double IPA
Victor, Idaho USA

Bottle... NFL Day at dchmela’s in O-Town... Lightly hazed, burnt orange ale with a huge, frothy, off-white head. Fantastic, rocky retention. The aroma presents resinous hops and tons of caramel malt. Full-bodied and velvety with gentle carbonation. Sweet, black tea... bitterness comes in late. Malty/sweet, tongue-numbing finish. Thanks to douglas88 for providing this bottle of beer!

Crushed with Jakebra. In a hot tub (non-gay situation). As it warms, it gets better. intimidated at first, but the flavor wasn’t all there. A little over-malted, but still aight. Deserves a good reputation.

Bottle from miketd’s tasting

I believe this came from Mike as well. Coming from a brewery that I have never heard of this was a nice discovery. It is not the best western IPA but if it were available in my area as the local brew it would certainly be a choice for summer evenings.

Aroma / Appearance - A one finger white head surged above a carbonated amber brown body. The IPA presented itself with florally bright notes including resin and sweetness. Without being over the top it was balanced.

Flavor / Palate - Bittersweet caramel, butterscotch and pine blended into a drinkable balanced brew. One of those sessionable releases that you get in every part of the country it is a great daily drinker but not one to seek out aggressively.

1l flip-top bottle. Thanks to GrbDg for sharing. Aroma: Sweet maltiness with a light brown sugar note. Some light piney and citrus notes. Appearance: Medium amber in color and clear. Off-white head was small and foamy with fair retention. Fair lacing. Flavor: Fairly sweet maltiness up front with caramel and a light graininess. Pine and resin hop notes. Bitterness kicks in just enough to balance. Nice dry finish. Palate: Medium bodied. Moderate carbonation. Light alcohol warming in back of mouth. Overall: A pleasant and well balanced IIPA.

Very nice and hoppy beer. Shared the beers with some friends.Nicel taste of hops and little sweet.

33.8 oz bottle-Pours a medium amber body with a nice tight small off white head. Aroma of hops, sweetness, and pine. Taste of hops, sweetness, caramel, and a nice sweet finish along with some dryness. This medium bodied brew is very well balanced and quite delicious.

Aroma is a sweet hop scent with a little malt in the back. Color is a slightly hazy amber gold with mellow carbonation and a thin head. Taste is sweet, hoppy then bitter. Starting with a medium body it goes down smooth with a rich feel. Finish comes in malty sweet with a little caramel, then a big bold hop flavor with some citrus that has a hint of orange. After taste is a lingering citrus with a mild bitterness. This is a great Double IPA, its extremely well balanced and very drinkable, yet big, rich and bold.

sampled with the phoenix crew. once again provided by sparky27... thanks e! clear copper colored pour with a long lasting white head and lots of spotty lacing. really had to work with the aroma... orange juice and zest, sugary malt, light pine, smooth, bland and sweet. dreadfully sweet on the palate with nothing to back it up... honey, caramel, sweet, light pine (too light) and more sweet. very light dry bitter finish is just a damn tease. it’s certainly not dry enough. smooth texture. full body. really sugary, sticky and slick... blah.
