La Jolla Double IPA

2007 PP SAF. Dark orange. A wierd grainy bong water aroma. Has a lemony bitterness. To me it seems like something is missing here. Kind of funky in the finish.

On tap at PP Strong Ale. Hazy amber in color with no head. Ctirusy hoppy malty aroma. Sweet malty and caramel notes. Malty and big hoppy flavor. Full bodied. Sweet and fruity tasting. Finish is hoppy. Nice beer. Very drinkable.

hazy orange, big off white head, sweet crystal malt aroma with lots of citrus and pine, sweet crystal malt flavor with a grainy crystalized sugar character, lots of citrus and floral hops, light bitter finish adds balance but stays out of the way of the hop flavor,

Clear golden appearance. Well spiced, strong grapefruit aroma. Sweet tropical fruits on the palate with spicy citrus overtones. Sweet fruitiness makes this very drinkable.

Draft at PP Strong Ale Fest ’05. Hazy gold pour. Grassy citrus hop aroma, powerful but no overbearing. Sweet caramel malt flavors with a good amount of grassy woody hops and a touch of citrus lemon.

9th Annual San Diego Strong Ale Fest: Slightly hazed golden color. Nice hop aroma of moderate strength. Floral and cirtus. Citrus flavor with some lemon and caramel. The malt helps balance the acidity. Light to medium bodied. Moderately hoppy in the flavor with the acidity going for a long finish.
