I don't know why they call it a Double IPA. Perhaps because it's part of their Big Beer line. Perhaps because it has 10% alcohol. Perhaps because it's twice as good as a regular IPA.
The color is a very nice copper. Head is good. The aroma is fantastic. It has a very potent hop aroma but also some floral notes and a bit of baking bread.
It hits you pretty good up front with grapefruit and hops.The mid has a bit of yeast. And then it finishes with very bitter and bold hops. But it doesn't overpower. It's exactly what you want from a big IPA. The taste lingers a bit but not too long.
A great IPA. Just drink it slow. You'd never know it was 10% alcohol. You could easily drink 2 of these in a half hour and then wonder why the room was spinning.
