A collision course of a few of our favorite hops, Grove Stand Double IPA is an absolute juice bomb of a beer. Before this beer even parks in front of you, you'll smell it coming, a rocket launcher of pineapple juice and orange marmalade explode your senses, followed up with an assault of even more fresh cut pineapple, overripe mango, and a hint of orange pith. The perfect amount of body and slick oat-induced mouthfeel supports all of these juicy hop flavors, yet still remains incredibly refreshing and terrifyingly crushable for being a beer that weighs in at 9%. Finishing moderately sticky and dissipating ever so slowly, this Grove Stand Double IPA tastes like you should be able to find it next to a carton of Dole at your local market.

Draft. Hazy amber beer with a cream head. Light grapefruit and light pine aroma. Grapefruit and light pine flavor. Medium bodied. Good bitterness. Grapefruit and light pine lingers with light tropical fruit.

Cloudy. Tan, big bubbly head. Fruity hop nose - lupulin powder and overripe fruits. Bitter, fruity..Again this is heavy on the lupulin powder.

Can from Popway, undated, drunk 7/15/17.
Soft-hued, rosy-peach. Big, white, well-retained head. Light to moderate haze.
Strong citrus up-front, not surprisingly. It runs the full gamut of tangerine, orange, grapefruit and lime. Some pine on the end definitely adds intensity to everything. Light, biscuity-cereal-like malt character with low sweetness and a touch of alcohol-like sharpness on the very end.
In the mouth it's dry, lightly sharp and tastes like lemon rind and heavy white grapefruit. Kinda boozy. Adding sediment/particulate from the bottom of the can provides more texture and cuts down on the sharpness, as would be expected, but doesn't add any more hop character. There's a really lovely watermelon-like ester, but the citrus is just a bit too sharp for me. Low carbonation; could use a bit more tightness to add a more creamy consistency. It's grovestand-y but it's also alcoholic-y and pine-y.

Can into a snifter showing moderately filtered apricot orange with sparse white foam lacing. The nose shows moderately intense dry pine resin with subtle notes of pineapple. The palate is light bodied and well carbonated. Guava forward with subtle flavours of pineapple and a light citric edge. Light bitterness with a little more pineapple rounds off the finish.

Draft at the source. Hazy yellow, white head. Aroma of citrus, tropical fruit, pine. Taste follows nose, with pineapple and resin. Very good.

Tap at The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours very hazy gold with a white head. Aroma of juicy tropicals. Med body at least. Flavor is very juicy tropicals. And some citrus. Juicy. Smooth. Not wholly dry. Bitter enough to please. Dang tasty stuff.

16 oz can poured, generously shared by Josh. Thanks! A hazy pale golden pour with a rocky foam head. Aroma is rich with pineapple and other mixed citrus fruit. Flavor is juicy, and a lot like the aroma, heavy on pineapple. Juicy, and nowhere near the imperial bill as far as flavor goes. Refreshing. Quite the impressive IPA here.

Draught in San Jose. This beer was very juicy on the aroma and flavor. Hazy appearance. The mouthfeel was a little thin, but great overall.

Crowler thanks to Chow. Pours a hazy orange yellow with small white head that lasts. The aroma is tropical fruit, earth, resin. Medium body, pineapple, mango, papaya, dank, juicy, light bitterness, very nice.

Dry aggressively bitter, very light tons of tropical fruit. Super smooth, some slight burnt notes. Maybe slightly over attenuated. Drinks like 6%. Super quaffable. Modest bitter finish. Awesome
