Our popular “golden double IPA” returns for two months. This beer first debuted in 2013 as a collaboration with our good friends at Ninkasi Brewing. It was a trendsetter when it was first released on draft as it highlights the route that lots of new hop bombs are headed: light in body, lighter in color, and huge tropical flavors and aroma.

On tap @ Henrik. Smells absolutely lovely this! Superb hoppy and piney. Finding lots of similarities with the beard oil that I'm wearing today. Birches, gin, juniper and fresh citrus. A lovely aroma indeed. It has a really cloudy orange dark colored body and a hefty lacing almost creamy off-white head on the top. Can't get over this nose, it smells really good. It's really tasty as well this. Thick and oily in the mouth and it's small bubbled and almost prickling on the carbonation. Piney and wild in the taste. No doubt that it's a well hopped one. Still, it's surprisingly and a little scary lightdrinkable for a DIPA. A really smooth well balanced one! 12.12.2015

Pours a hazy peach color with minimal head. Aroma is very dank, with hints of mango, peach, and other tropical fruits. Flavor is bitter and sweet, with loads of tropical fruit and a long pine/spruce hop finish. Really, really good.

Bottle, 22oz. At Både &. Almost clear in the glass, golden in colour and with a small off-white head. Piney aroma with lots of orange zest, some malts in the back. Lots of bitterness in the mouth, lasting for a really long time. Orange zest, pine cones and a little malty touch in the flavor. Full body, quite dry on the palate, with a nice carbonation. Lasting finish, mostly on the bitter, hoppy side. Delicious and wonderful, sure a beer to repeat. 150821
