Commercial Description:
Double Peg makes it’s return! This brew is what hop lovers long for. With just over nine pounds of hops per barrel, including twenty-four pounds of dry hops, this ale just screams hops. Three different rounds of dry-hopping gives this I2PA it’s intense aroma that we so love here at the Brewhouse. Get ready for a taste of the fresh, green goodness of hops! ABV 8.3%

Sampled on draft at the brewpub. Pours a clear copper color with a medium head. Good head retention and lacing. Strong citrus and floral hop notes in the aroma. Taste is very nice. Lots of hops, with resiny, citrus, herbal and earthy notes. Nice use of Simcoe here. Sweet caramel maltiness as well. Medium bodied. Good beer.

Tap. Nice head. Smell of hops and subtle fruit. Taste is sweet and hopy. Considering the ABV it is not overpowering on the alcohol. Nice finish.

brewgrass, came to the hams tent and wanted to try their double IPA, good stuff, light for its style, but definitly a drinkability quotient, good stuff.

Enjoyed at 2008 Brewgrass. I’m not sure what isn’t good about this brew. Great aroma, and the drinkablilty is just supurb. Very hoppy with pine and resin as well as a malty profile. Citrus....Good!!

on tap at Brewgrass. Ah, here we go: cloudy orange with a thick white head. This stuff smells awesome. It’s dank and strong with loads of herbs, pineapple, ammonia, grapefruit. It is very hoppy and very defined. This is semi sweet in the way of flavor with lots of lemon along with hints of pine, ganja, and herbal bitterness. This is a very stanky, drity-nasty IIPA. Great stuff.

Draft at brewpub. 10 oz. snifter. Pours a cloudy reddish with a good size tan head. Hints of simcoe hops, cascade hops, citrus fruits, candied sugar, spices. Finished smooth and stuck to my tongue like a STD. Very impressed with this one from this brewery.
