Blue Bridge Double Pale Ale
This is a very good beer and at 8.2% acl/vol it is a pretty big one and well disguised. Nose is a mix of malt and hops. Decent balance for an IPA... a bit light on the hop for a Double IPA. It is not a overly complex beer on the taste. Two or three hops, well blended. Start with just a bit of malt then goes into lemon and bitter, the finish is very very slightly fruity and floral. Clean and dry. A very mild and nice double IPA. As far as double IPA's goes this is the mildest "real" one I have tried. Quite good and worth getting. A side note this beer was produced and is offered in a pairing with chocolatier Crystal Duck's "the Lemon Drop" a white chocolate with lemon and a hint of basil...
