beer_name: Double Dog Double Pale Ale
text: gosh, these beer labels are crazy! poured a nice fluffy off-white head which laces a bit on the side of the glass. amber hues in the color of the bber, nice and bright with some orange tint. really appealing malty scent. the malt rises up first, but don't forget the floral, appley, quality to it. sweet and divine. oh my. what an amazing balance between hops and malt. the malt is powerfully caramel while the hops fill in their own taste. a bit of a hop bomb as the flavor lingers, but so balanced that it feels less punctuated. the alcohol is well hidden. grand. a bit thick for my liking, a step behind being syrupy. however, for as hoppy as this is, it is barely dry. no real roadblock to this being one of the finest beers I have tasted, excepting the slick feel. this is straight up the alley for lovers of this style. balanced, killer hops and that glorious malt flavor is truly divine.
