Commercial Description:
Dobbel Dose or Dobbel Dram is a double IPA made with european style hops rather than US hops. This beer is also heavily dryhopped in the aging tank for the extra hop taste and aroma.<br /> 9% alc. 82 ibu and 22 ebc. Made from Maris Otter malt, wheat malt and Crystal.<br />Serve at 10-12C or 50-55F. Goes well with spicy food and grilled meat. American Bottle Label -- "Double Dram" is made with more of everything, including all the hops the Hand Brewery’s tiny brew-kettle can take. Feisty American hops for bittering are followed by noble Fuggles and Styrian Goldings for a spicy, flowery aroma. As tradition dictates, this is an exceptionally hardy brew, made to weather the long, hard ocean voyage to anywhere...

Bottle 50 cl. Hazy amber golden with a bubbly off-white head that dissipates rather quickly. Herbal and medicinal aroma. Quite full-bodied, fruity with some yeast. Somewhat astringent finish, again hebal with something reminding me of cough syrup. Surprisingly low in bitterness. 231208

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy orange with a small and shortlived head. Aroma is light citrusy and woody hoppy with a light caramel note and yeast. Smooth fruity hops flavour with a solid caramel malt base and a lasting yeasty flavour. Sweet caramel flavour into the finish with a declining bitterness. Lasting yeasty impression.

Bottle. Hazy golden coloured with a medium sized white head. Fruity aroma of dried fruits, overriped fruits and hops. Fruity flavour of hops and overriped fruits with notes of pine needles. Hoppy finish.

Bottle, 8.5%, batch #108. Caramelly and grassy hop aroma. Quite cloudy orange and dark amber colour. Small white head. The flavour starts off quite sweet with a full mouthfeel. There is a distinct citric note from the hops, getting close to sour. Quite low carbonation. Not my understanding of an IPA, and sourish, but I rather like it.

Bottle 50cl @ home. Unclear hazy medium orange amber color with a average to large, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, straw, caramel, moderate to light heavy hoppy, grass. Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet and bitter with a long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft.
