Commercial Description:
Thanks for purchasing another offering in our series of "Big Mo" Beers. For as long as people have inhabited Colorado's Front Range, the Twin Sisters have had a strong impact on Colorado residents. The views from atop the 11,428' peaks are breathtaking and afford sweeping views of the entirety of Rocky Mountain National Park. As an expression of admiration we have crafted an ale that exhibits a profound impact all its own. At 11428 IBU's (just kidding), Twin Sisters is a mountainous testament to hops, and that they bring. A feeling of ease and relaxation become apparent for all whom would dare to climb it. So for all that enjoy summiting ales with copious hops additions to achieve a felling of contentment and awe, we offer Twin Sisters Double IPA. Enjoy!

Bomber thanks to SParky27. Pours hazy orange with frothy white head. Aroma is heavy on citrus, orange peel, hops, caramel and sweet malt. Flavor is citrus and orange peel with bitter hops and caramel malt. Finishes with light alcohol burn. Nice balance between hops and malt leads to smooth palate and enjoyable brew.

Woody hoppiness with a bit of citrus. Looks great with nice white head and orange. A bit hazy.Tastes of woody hops with a citrus finish. Decent, not great, but definitely drinkable. Hop character is lacking, but flavorful.

(Draught at Oliver Twist, Stockholm) Amber colour with brief, beige head. Fruity, hoppy nose with citrus, orange peel and resiny hops. Fruity, hoppy taste with notes of grapefruit, orange peel, pine needles and resin. Long hoppy finish with a generous bitterness. More than medium body, fairly sweet with an alcohol bite at the end. A bit one dimensional, but with great hop character. Very nice beer.

Bottle (75 cl). Pours a hazy golden liquid with little to no foam. The smell is dominated by citrusy hops. The taste is similar with lots of hops and bitterness but still smooth and easy to drink, doesn’t have that bitter bite to it that sometimes ruin these kinds of beers. Very nice!

Bottled:
Pours hazy orange with a small but creamy head. Aroma is resinous hops, dried fruits, lychees and pineapples. Flavour is loads of resinous hops, dries fruits and maybe some liquorice. Long bitterness. Damn good beer!
