Bold, citrusy, and piney, our double IPA isn’t just a bigger version of Rebel IPA. Instead we explored a different balance of hop character, including Bravo & Galaxy hops, and upped the ante on their flavor and expression for a brew that’s intense yet enjoyable through every sip.

From a bottle into a snifter.
Beer is an opaque honey color with 1 finger of white foam and whispy lace left on the glass.
Smell is heavy with citrus and floral notes. Hints of yeast and Carmel mix well with the hoppy citrus to give it an inviting aroma
Taste follows smell well here. Very hip forward with both citrus and floral notes. Sam Addams did well here to get max flavor from the hops. Not much to report on the malt except hints of carmel on the back of the tung
Overall one of my favorites from Sam. Balanced and hop strong just like it was meant to be!

Quite bitter & unbalanced. I found this one to be sort of hard to drink. Cheers! C-

When the selection is only the "normal" choices, this will suffice. I consider it the Natural Ice of IPA's. Not my first choice, but acceptable. It's my last choice before going to whiskey.
