India Pale Ales are not for the weak of taste bud. Double connotes that the style is well, twice as awesome. Those things together are great, but putting them in an extra-large bottle (22 oz.) takes it right over the edge.
Turns out one of the most flavorful IPAs I've ever had was brewed right down the street from my office. Two Brothers Brewing started a tradition last year by creating a limited run DIIPA called Hop Juice (named for the insanely strong flavor of the feature ingredient in this beer).
It's only in stores for a limited time, and it runs out very quickly, so I plan to attend their launch party (For the Love of Hops Festival: 2010) to secure myself a few bottles. If I can find parking.
If you're a lover of the hops, and you think you'll go, drop me a line. Maybe the VIP tickets would be worth it...
