RELEASE: January // THE ABV. 8.75% | IBU’s. 95 // THE NOSE: Tarragon, Sweaty Sock, Grapefruit Rind, Wasabi // THE TASTE: Licorice, Peppermint, Goldenberry, White Pepper, Star Anise, Sour Cherry, Greengauge // THE BOTTOMLINE: Released as part of Deschutes hoppy ‘Bond Street Series,’ this herbaceous and peppery monster tempers a viscous and extracted bitter hop resin base with a kiss of burnt sweetness and a long, warm leathery finish. Imagine a fifty-fifty blend of new world west coast IPA and its darker, more traditional seafaring British cousin and you’ll have a solid approximation of what this tastes like. A bold, respectable, tasty and clearly well produced Double India Pale. // THE BACKBONE: Centennial & Cascade Hops, Crystal, Pale and Carastan Malts // PRICE POINT: $6 | 1x 22oz bottle //
