A Virginia Beer Co. and Tapped Crafthouse & Tapped Gastropub Collaboration. Voted as one of BeerAdvocate's Top 25 New Beers of 2018.
How many hops? ALL THE HOPS. Boasting a 3+ pounds per barrel double dry-hop with Citra and Simcoe. A big, badass beer for a big, badass team-up. Bask in the succulent and tropical flavours of this ultra-smooth DDH DIPA, with just enough hop bite on the back-end to remind you to double tap for love of lupulin.
For the first time ever, find cans of this 8% DIPA at VBC in early February and draft EXCLUSIVELY at Tapped Crafthouse & Tapped Gastropub in late February.

Does NOT taste like what double IPA would typically taste like. Very smooth and full flavored with out the bite! Great after taste also

This beer is bursting with flavor! Juicy. Smooth. Citrus. Pineapple. A nice bite on the backend without being overwhelmingly bitter on the finish. Really glad they decided to can this the second time around!

Poured a cloudy yellow body with good head and lace sheath. Aroma has grapefruit and some light tropical fruit smells with little else. Smooth, clean, light body, there is a touch of floral crispness that keeps beer from cloying as beer is mostly a sweet, fruit beer. Finishes crisp/dry with well-hidden ABV.
