Tap@Taphouse, Copenhagen - Amber golden pour with a white head. Sweet malty and fruity with some tangerine and grapefruit, some caramel sweetness, medium body, hoppy bitter finish. Solid old school dipa.

Tap @ craft beer Helsinki, Ullanlinna. Poured clear golden color with a thin white head. Malty, almondy, very hoppy aroma. Flavor has malts, sweet fruits, hops, resin. Heavy stuff. Tasty.

Draft. Amber beer with a cream head. Grapefruit aroma. Grapefruit and pine flavor with light caramel. Medium bodied. Very good bitterness. Grapefruit and pine linger with caramel.

Good beer, really pleasant fresh hop nose, floral, citrus, a little resin and tropical fruit. Flavor similar, with a clean bready malt. Still, it suffers from the one thing I don't like about double IPAs, especially the bigger ones like this - the clash of a heavy semi-sweet malt body with aggressive hopping.

Poured from bottle 5/17/18 clear coppper with a white head. Aroma is floral hops light malt. Taste is sweet caramel loads of bitterness in the finish but somehow it works.

Time to check it out with Founders again on an Imperial IPA called Double Trouble. I got a four pack at The Cellar in Odessa, Texas a couple of weeks ago. Opening a 12 oz bottle and tilting into my favorite ipa glass, a tulip from Buffalo Bayou, it delivers a dark yellow body topped by a snow white foam that quickly settles. I raise for a smell, pleasant for sure. Decently piney, pineapple, alfalfa. A drink follows. A bit more involved than the scent, there is citrus, mostly lemon, resin, biscuit. Strongly bitter. Quite good overall but not unique. 7/11/18

Bottle from Craft Brewed. Pours a clear deep gold with a finger of white foam that dissipates. Toasted malt, honey, citrus and toasted caramel aromas with some traces of booze as it warms. Smooth on the palate, with a pithy, citrusy bitterness. Mild pine notes and bright citrus, honey sweetness and bready malt. Lingering bitterness, pith and toasted caramel with booze on the finish. A nice, bold double IPA that succeeds in its stated mission. --- Beer merged from original tick of Double Trouble on 14 Jun 2018 at 19:45 - Score: 7. Original review text: Toasted bread, alcohol, caramel cream and citrus aromas. Bitter pine and pithy citrus followed by honey and light boozy notes. Bitter finish

12 oz bottle. Pours a light copper color with light head. Aromas of dull pine, candied fruit, oranges and soft malts. Flavors of dry pine, dusty fruit, bitter pineapple, and dry toasted malts. Bitter finish. Getting to be old school...

Bottle pour into shaker pint glass. Aroma is citrus, pine, tropical fruit and base malts. Appearance is clear golden yellow with nice sparkle, finger-width white foamy head with poor retention and no lacing. Taste is much like aroma--bitter resin, floral, citrus with later mild pine and malt. Palate is medium bodied with thick texture, average to lively carbonation with bitter finish. Overall, an experience in bitterness more than flavor but has balance and complexity.
