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.

12fl.oz. bottle. Pours a clear, golden orange with a large, frothy, long lasting, off-white head that laces. Fruity, hoppy aroma of grapefruit, tangerine, peach and caramel malt. Sweet fruity flavour of grapefruit, peach, pine and caramel malt with a dry, bitter, hoppy finish. Medium body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. An excellent IIPA.

Bottle. Appearance- amber and reasonably clear, some carbonation, a two-finger beige/off-white head which leaves some lacing. Aroma- pine, pineapple, mango, blood orange, citrus fruit, fruit juice, yeast, hops. Taste- bitter hops dominate, orange peel and pineapple juice, pine, juicy hop resins, malty undertones with hints of caramel and bread. Oily and clingy in the mouth, and a nice understated bitter finish. Excellent.

Orange color with small white head. Aroma is grapefruit, orange, tangerine,/resinous, pine, caramel. Taste is more of these fruits, with a toasty malt body, a good amount of sweetness and a great bitter booze kick which fits perfectly! Oily mouthfeel. Top-notch material.
