Exploring the similar terrains of the Peak District and the South Island of New Zealand will often require a number of Double Backs before you find your path. This DIPA will take you on a similar journey with a lime zest aroma, a sweet tropical fruit palate and a moreish finish from an adventurous combination of New Zealand hops including Nelson Sauvin, Waimea, Kohatu and Wai-Iti.

Copenhagen 22/3 2026. 44 cl can from Meny, Borups Allé, Frb. F. A grey and cloudy andscape on the can with a silvery pattern superimposed.
Pours unclear golden yellow with a mid-sized white head- Stable. Settles as a thin patch of foam floating in the middle of the glass. Substantial lacing.
Aroma is medium intense with a sweet odor of fermented stone fruits mingling with a sharp scent of citrus fruit and metallic alcohol. Mango and overripe peach. Grapefruit. A bit brutal.
Light carbonation. Slightly thick, oily, soft, flat texture.
Flavor is fairly intense with a medium strong sweetness followed and balanced by a medium strong bitterness. Aftertaste is bitter with a pronounced sweet and boozy undertone. Lingers for a while. Finish is quite dry with a touch of alcohol.
When something is the double of a double it should be a bit brutal. I suppose.
