Doubleganger was conceived as an effort to push the concept of Doppelganger to the absolute limit of flavor and intensity. Both the kettle and dry hop rates were increased while amending the base beer to be thicker and more robust.
The result, to us, is a bit surprising in its balance and softness. It is one of the most fruity and tropical beers that we make. The mouthfeel is viscous and coating with flavors of overripe mango, drank citrus, and rich tropical fruit balanced by a sharp but pleasant finish. We invite you to share it with friends and use it as a vehicle to reflect and to revel in the good fortune of life.

Poured on 1/7/2023 from a 16oz can into a snifter glass.
A: The beer is a deep gold color, with a large foamy white head that fades slowly and leaves a thick lace on the glass.
S: The aroma contains strong floral and dank hops, strong juicy citrus & tropical fruit and caramelized malts.
T: The taste likewise starts out with a strong floral and dank hops bitterness that is quickly followed by a very strong and juicy citrus & tropical fruit sweetness. The malt character is hearty but not too heavy and brings a very good balance. The after-taste is slightly sweet and slightly hoppy.
M: Crisp and very smooth, medium body, medium carbonation, finish is slightly sticky.
O: Very tasty, goes down quite easily, not too filling, good kick, very good representation of style. This is a very nice DNEIPA to drink for a long time.

Appearance: Pours a cloudy orange color with a two finger head; strong retention and streaks of lace
Smell: Dank aromatics, with passionfruit and pithy orange tones
Taste: Orange pith, at the outset, with passionfruit adding a milder aspect; pretty high bitterness, after the swallow
Mouthfeel: Medium to full body with moderate carbonation
Overall: A bit more like the West Coast than other Tree House beers
Thanks, devoured_by_vermin, for the opportunity

Poured from a can 3 weeks from canning into a Willi. Very aromatic on the nose - very tropical with a mango and citrus.
Similar notes on the palate, with just a foamy pillowy balance that Tree House is known for. Very mild bitterness. There's nothing different here. Definitely one of their better offerings. I'd love to just have a four pack of this in my fridge at all times. Just a top notch NEIPA.
