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.

Sampled on tap at PIB, pours a pinkish red / amber with a small beige head. Aroma of sour cherries above anything, some sweetness shines through as well. Flavour of tart cherries, more sourness, and yet more sourness - very intense - not much else to describe. The sourness is very puckering, lingering on the finish. Definitely delivering its promise. Good in small doses.

Good looking draught beer. Not like an IPA, Soapy. This was the most memorable for me, the soapiness. It tasted like dish soap, it had texture like dish soap. It is not like a good beer.

On tap at Uber Tavern, pours a cloudy reddish dark brown with a big beige head. Aroma of brown sugar, Belgian yeast and hops. Flavour of sweet candied sugar, Belgian yeast, and caramel malt, with almost a peppery note in there. A bit cloyingly sweet, but quite good.

Very good sour. Unfortunately, it’s too big for its own good and, probably because of that, there’s a light buttery note. Good sour cherries with a distinctive taste from the Rainiers. Light gold with a little head. Strong pucker. A bit of funk complexity but it’s mostly just a laco sour cherry. Good beer, but it suffers from its strength, a fairly common problem for American sours.

Clear amber color, small steady white head, some lace. Dish cleanser-citrus aroma. Medium-bodied. Leafy hoppy, woody flavor. Moderate bitterness. Feels less than 7.5%.

Draught. Clear brown amber with thin white head. Fruity aroma, with caramel. Full bodied fruity flavour, with caramel and candy sugar notes. Bitter tang finish, the hop keeping it from getting too sweet.
