Double Jack is back, exclusively in the Merlin's Mixed Pack. Intensely hoppy yet supremely balanced, Double Jack is our signature double IPA that still stands strong today. The Merlin's Mixed Pack - named after our longtime brewmaster Matt "Merlin" Brynildson - also works its magic with three complementary IPAs: Easy Jack, Luponic Distortion IPA and the West Coast legend known as Union Jack.

Hop juice for the hop lover. Insane amounts of citrus, pine, and sticky resins.
Solid malts, chewy, and bready. Heavy bitterness, really intense. Solid tropical fruit, and grapefruit in the finish, with loads of pine resins. Really a solid balanced DIPA.

Tap at Stadbrouwhuis, Leiden: Hazy orange coloured brew with an almost intense dry bitter taste, hints of oranges, grapefruit, caramel, pine and an very well hidden treacherous burn of alcohol.

Typical heavy usa dipa, big malty and grainy base with lots of piney notes. Resinous hops, a bit sweet but, firm and tasty stuff.

Schön hopfig, leicht grasig, Frucht mit dabei, tolle Perlung, harzig, schöner warmer Abgang. Lecker Ding.

Tap @ CBC. Pours golden hazy with a small but froathy head. Would expect it to be thicker if poured into a bigger glass. Aroma of fresh hops, melon, grapefruit, yeast. Very fresh. Wellbalanced malt-notes. Taste is quite the same. Very nice and fresh hops. The malt is matching it perfectly. Alcohol is very well hidden.
