With our 2XIPA, a massive dry hop brings a feverishly hoppy and well-balanced Double IPA. Citrusy hops tease the senses with big aromatics and certifiable bitterness. An enormous haul of hops, including Simcoe and Citra, deliver notes of grapefruit, lemon and doughy sweetness. Double your expectations because this is an ale that demands reverence.

Weicher, deutlich getreidiger Hopfenantrunk. Die kernigen Noten des Getreides prägen den Hopfen auch in weiteren Teilen, das Bier wirkt dadurch voller. Der Alkohol kommt zum Ende etwas hervor, hier ist das Bier zudem süßlich. Zuvor noch grasig, zunehmend voller, angenehme Holz- und Erdnoten. Weicher, eher dunkler Hopfenausklang. 12/11/11/10/10/11

On tap at Proof. Pours a copper gold with small frothy off white head. The aroma is a floral hop. Medium mouthfeel with a smooth citrus and pine hops and lingering light bitter finish. Easy to drink, a very good IIPA from Southern Tier.

Brown bottle, purchased at the LCBO, savoured on August 22 2011; eye: golden, clear, minimal effervescence, tiny ring of off-white head, slight lacing; nose: lots of hops on the initial pour but it disappears almost completely the second time I smelled the beer, caramel, orange, alcohol; mouth: alcohol, malt, caramel, hops, finale in alcohol with presence of malt, full body, average carbonation, lightly alcoholic texture; overall: ordinary and it feels more like a malt liquor than an IPA FRANÇAIS Bouteille brune, 335 ml, achetée à la LCBO, savourée le 22 août 2011; œil : dorée, limpide, effervescence minime, petit anneau de mousse blanc cassé, très légère dentelle; nez : beaucoup de houblon après le versement initial mais il disparaît presque complètement dès que je la sens une deuxième fois, caramel, orange, alcool; bouche : alcool, malt, caramel, houblon, finale en alcool avec présence de malt, corsé, carbonatation moyenne, texture légèrement alcoolique; en résumé : ordinaire : on dirait un malt liquor plus qu’une IPA

This double IPA pour a hazy golden colour with a creamy white head, great retention and very nice soapy lacing. The nose is hoppy, but not as I expected. It is quite mild with some notes of fruits (almost like pineapple and oranges). The alcohol is very well-hidden and this one goes down very easily. Again, the taste is pretty mild with hop creating a little bitterness. This really is going down too smoothly. Quite a nice blended brew that is totally worth the money (as most beers of that high alcohol are quite expensive usually).

Bottle bought in January at Woodman’s Oak Creek. Keep meaning to get to the IPAs while they’re still fresh. Oh well. Nice golden color, thick spongy head. Smell is malty with just a bit of orange peel. It takes a few sips for the hops to start showing up. Mostly orangey with a pine secondary. Bitterness at the back of the palate. May not be the hop bomb it might have been eight months ago. Alcohol is not pronounced. But a fine IPA nonetheless.

From a 355ml bottle on 9/7/2011. Pours golden with a slight head. Has a lovely strong fruity, piney hop aroma. In the mouth, there’s oodles of sweet caramel malt, grapefruit, orange and lemon, with a dash of warming alcohol. Nice and hoppy without being over the top, and well balanced against the malt. Quite easy drinking for 8.3%. A very enjoyable double IPA.
