Description
On St. Patrick’s Day 2007, Double Mountain Brewery & Taproom was unveiled to a thirsty public. Double Mountain was founded by Matt Swihart and Charlie Devereaux with a clear mission: make great beer for craft beer fans! Ours is a “brewers’ brewery”, with an uncompromising focus on beer quality. From the beginning, our goal was to make beers that we liked to drink. All of our beers are served up unfiltered and long-aged, to deliver maximum flavor and character. The beers can be very complex and assertive, but with the ultimate goal of proper balance. We aim to satisfy both the hardcore aficionados and the more casual craft beer fan, all in the same glass.

Bottle from Made in Oregon. Pours hazy translucent gold with a 3 finger foamy white head. Aroma is fruity with a little spiciness. Med body or better. It is very freshly hoppy, but it’s mostly earthy/pungent. But the nose continues fruity. Malt: yes. But not caramel. Light malt. This is very unusual, and extremely flavorful - but not in a hop burn way. Close, but not quite. Delicious.

Bottle from Made in Oregon. Pours light amber with a 3 finger white head. Nose is strongly floral with citrus pine. Med body. Flavor is slightly roasted malt with a lot of citrus and pine. But it’s not harsh, and the floral resurges a bit in the finish. Well, there is a little hop burn, but it’s not harsh!

Pours a cloudy yellow color with a large white head. A biscuit and honey nose. Smooth, some fruity hop, big grainy malt base. Very dry. Odd for the style.

Bottle thanks to MikeJ. Pours a clear golden color with a medium white head. A nice robust fruity nose with lemons and resin. A nice flavor with citrus and bitter lemon bite, a bit of oranges and light resin. Very smooth. A somewhat unique herbal flavor, very good.

Cloudy golden coloured body with an off-white head. Aroma of fresh hops, pineapple, pine and a hint of resin. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong hop flour with a good malt backbone and a mild resin and pine flavour with some nice light sugars at the end. Aftertaste shows some good balance between hops and malt with not too much hops nor bitterness and some lighter grassy and herbal flavours. Overall, a decent IPA, but not spectacular and a lot less hops than expected. I sampled this pint on draught from Mother’s Bistro & Bar in Portland, Oregon on 11-April-2013 for US$5.50 sampled at the restaurant.

On tap at Urban Family Public House, pours a cloudy golden orange with a medium white head. Aroma of piney, grassy hops and biscuity malts. Flavour is very dry, full of piney, grassy hops, and biscuity malts. Quite dry and hoppy, with a long duration. Standard stuff, but very well executed. Great IPA.

On tap at Bottleworks, pours a hazy golden with a medium beige head. Aroma of cat piss, moldy socks and skunky, herbal hops - WTF? Flavour is thankfully quite a bit better, with citrus and piney hops, dank earthy notes, and dry, slightly sweet biscuity malts. Actually a gorgeous beer, despite the off-putting aroma. Highly enjoyable stuff.

Draught. Seemed wheat-y although this is a malty Belgian ale. Aroma is somewhat sweet. Malty flavour with a hop edge. Sweet caramel in the finish. An interesting beer
