Double India Pale Ale. 9.1% ABV. 110 IBU. Brewed and bottled by Montgomery Brewing, Montgomery, MN.
Lightly hazed, deep golden hue, with crimson edges, slim, but lasting ivory froth atop.
In the nose: Citric fruit notes, caramel malt tones, piney, earthy. Interesting.
In the mouth: More malt, more hops, moderate bitterness. But, wait, moderate? With 110 IBUs? Well, yeah. Malty, spicy, earthy, and hoppy, too. And here comes the booze.
It's pretty nice. But not quite what I like. Not bad, but not ....great. Not really what I look for in a double IPA.
This was a tough one for me to write. I like the brewery, but I don't like this beer. I have to go ahead and publish it, though, to lay out the evidence against those people who say that I like everything.

L: pours bright dark amber to light auburn under a lacy 2" cream colored foam cap
S: Popping the cap releases citrus, citrus rind, tangerine, tropical fruit, spice, and herbal aromas. Hop aromas are medium high, malt aromas medium low, and yeast aromas low
T: Tropical fruit flavors lead bringing melon, orange, tangerine, and guava with pine and a hint of mint emerging near the middle. For the listed level of bitterness, the bitterness is not harsh.
F: The body is very creamy and medium with medium to medium low carbonation.
O: This is a big, bold Double IPA with big alcohol and big fruit flavors and a healthy dose of malt balancing the big bitterness
