Commercial Description:
Fast on the heels of our fantasticly reformulated Hops Infusion, our brewers have picked up the gauntlet and brewed a Double IPA using exclusively Simcoe(R) Hops! This west coast Hops was created in 2000 by Select Botanicals, Inc. and carries a fantastic flavor profile abounding with citrusy-grapefruit, piney, resiny notes that pushes this Double IPA over the top. 9.0% ABV in the brew gives it a nice malt foundation as well. Draft and bottles, 12 oz. in PA, 22 oz. out of state (as we have no 6-packs),

Really good DIPA. Full bodied and great mouthfeel. Pours a dark orange white a thin white head that leaves nice lacing. Hops, grapefruit, pine, all of the best aspects of a good IPA done right in this one.

Pours a cloudy burnt orange gold with a huge billowy head that lasts and lasts. Nose of pine, citrus and honey. Mouthfeel is heavy, oily, tastes of mint or licorice? This is a big, big beer, my first experience with Simcoe hops. A nice IPA, one of the better ones I’ve had.

Bright orangish pour with a finger thick off white pour that leaves nice lacing. Strong hop aroma with some woods or earthy notes also. Great hop flavors with a honey nut cherio after taste. Strong malt backbone balances the hops out perfectly. A hint of alcohol as well.

Bottle thanks to ericandersnavy. Pours a nice golden orange, faint haze, off-white head. Aroma of pine and floral. Flavor is malty, lots of pine, nice strong bitter. Mouthfeel is medium body and high carbonation. Overall, pretty good stuff!

Interesting label has a trippy close up image of some hops. Rich aroma of hops, with some herbal notes and malty sweetness. Thick pine forest flavor - lots of West Coast Simcoe brand houblons. Bitter but not hard. The hops dominate, but things are still in balance. There is a touch of citrus, and no skank. The glass has some sheet lacing on it. This should be on every hop lovers list.

Pours an orange amber with small white head. Simcoe hops and pine on the nose...with nuts and malts on the back. Flavor is bitter hops, citrus and sticky hops resin. Very nice beer.
