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),

Pours cloudy orange. Tons of hop aroma. Huge hop flavor is balanced by the malt. Highly drinkable double IPA and one of my favorites.

Looks great, a hazy deep orangey red with a decent off-white head. The aroma is pure hoppery, citrusy and piney with a little hint of sweetness at the end. The taste is also hop-dominated, but sits on top of a nice malty sweetness. Doesn’t finish quite as dry or bitter as most DIPAs, which lost it points by my measure. If you like hops, you will like this beer.

Hazy orangey-golden. Drool...deep rich orangey, yuzu-y simcoe nose. I like that. Rich, resiny, orangey...just some good clean IPA fun. Solid pale malt underpinning is perfect. Slightly sticky finish.

A great double ipa. Heavy malt with citrus and hoppy flavor. Definitely a beer worth ordering as much as possible.

Bottle courtesy of jsquire at Fort Wayne Winter Gathering. Small head that mostly diminished, spotty lacing, hazy, no carbonation observed, and an orangish hue. Nose was hoppy, citrus, grapefruit, and caramel. Ditto for the flavor. Smooth mouthfeel and light-medium in body.Quaffable for the style and not over-the-top hops IMO.Would drink again and worthy of a try.

Pours copper with a minimal white head. Aroma of flora, citrus, pine and sweet malt. Sweet malt and hops present right up front, with a big bitter kick. Finishes a citrusy grapefruit. Very nice IPA,

650 ml bottle, RBNAG07. Amber colour. Lots of very small particles floating. Hazy. Rich apricoty aroma. Smooth texture. Sweetish rich malts. Apricoty sweet malts. Strong sharp hops aroma. Full-bodied. Lots of hops in the finish that ends up with a sharp lingering hop bitterness.
