Double India Pale Ale
We taste: huge citrus and pineapple notes, soft pine
This is Blizzard of Hops … turned up to 11. For Double Blizzard, we used a cooler temperature for the kettle hop additions, softening the character of the Centennial, Chinook and El Dorado. On the cold side, we dry-hopped with four pounds per barrel of Chinook and Galaxy. At 8.3% ABV, we’re into semi-hazy Double IPA territory, and we like it here.
Hops: Centennial, Chinook, El Dorado, Galaxy
Grain: Pilsner, Unmalted Wheat, White Wheat
Yeast: House Ale

Pours hazy golden with a fluffy white head. Aroma of pine oils, citrus, galaxy hops. Taste has harsh hop oils, some citrus. Palate has some woody notes that remain on the nose. Good.

Crisp, little citrusy. Would be good camping beer on a snowy Arizona evening. Watching the stars.
