Double Simcoe IPA
Pours an amber color with a very tall head that has nice retention and leaves plenty of lacing on the glass. The aroma is, well, all hops. Lots of pine and citrus hops. Everything else seems to be masked by the hop aromas. The flavor has a lot of caramel malt sweetness, but it is followed immediately by a big hop punch. Lots of bitterness in this one as well as lots of citrus and pine hop flavors. The bitterness lingers on the palate. Not as extreme as some I've had, but it's pretty hoppy. The intense bitterness dries out the tongue. Has a medium body and good drinkability.
