Weyerbacher Double Simcoe IPA

Bottle, pembroke pines total wine. Yes! This one I really liked. Nice hazy amber pour wtih a pretty decent head. Aroma is juicy with citrus hops and good malt. Flavor is very hoppy but also a great malt backbone. FInish starts malty but finishes with a bitter hop bite. well done!

Appearance is a thick cloudy dark orange hue with amber highlights, two fingers of off-white thick creamy head mostly sustains, good lacing on the glass. Smell is, unsurprisingly, full of Simcoe hops, mix of sweet grapefruit, citrus, and light pine, slight biscuit malts. Taste is initially dominated by pine and grapefruit hops, opens up to some biscuit malts and some sweet malts and honey, finishes sweet and dry. Mouthfeel is medium-bodied, thick oily and creamy texture coats the tongue briefly, milder carbonation. Drinkability is moderate-high for a DIPA, i really like the creamy texture matched up with the tasty sweet hop profile, a great and well-balanced east coast DIPA I would love to sample again.

Striling appearance: a nice ruby red with a strong off-white head. Relatively clear, decent carbonation. Nice aroma of piney and citrusy hops. Flavor is mainly citrusy/grapefruit like hops. Nice chewy, syrupy mouthfeel. This beer has a sweetness to it that balances the hops well. Nice hop afterglow on the palate. Not much in the way of alcohol, surprisingly. Good solid IIPA overall.

Cloudy amber appearance with only a light layer of froth. A full bodied brew that is slightly slick and syrupy. Big pineapple grassy hoppiness in aroma as well as a faint hint of peaches. Flavor is intensely hoppy yet lacking balance. Heavy bitterness in finish. Overall a decent ale yet could use some balance.

Pours an attractive opaque mahogany with a two finger thick, frothy cream colored head. The nose is rich with floral and pineapple hops. The flavor is perfectly supported by the nose, as sweetness from the malt leads the way, followed by a nice, dry, subtle bitter mid to finish. Creamy on the palate. Excellent balance in this awesome IIPA.

[1619-20080821] 12floz bottle. Citrus bark and navel orange peel aroma with a hint of lemon. Murky, amber red body with a long-lasting foamy off-white head. Old tree bark and citrus leaves in the flavour which then finishes with a boozy bang. Medium-full body is quite bitter. Very nicely made, interesting kick to it.

12 oz. in trade from MaltOMeal- thanks! Served in tulip- poured nearly transparent darkened copper/amber, one finger head that tried to steal my smokes as it laced, very light carbonation. Aroma of pine, grapefruit, and month old gym socks (?). Hits the mouth with a wide body, malt seems to be a bit old and overdried at the elevator when it was harvested, citrus comes in the finish followed by the hops rolling in shortly afterwards. It’s ok, but not something I would seek out. Bad bottle?

Pours a nice amber, nice lacing. Big aroma, citrus and pine. Nice sweetness, but the bitterness is a bit too much. I’ll pick some up for you OG.
