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!

Bottled. An unclear orange beer with a thin orange head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of citrus. The flavor is sweet grassy, citrusy, and hoppy on an OK malt back ground, leading to a dry bitter finish.

(Bottle 75 cl) Courtesy of Sliffy. Pours a slightly hazy amber golden with a small, yellowish head. Fat aroma of caramel and bitter hop oils. Quite full-bodied, sweetish caramel and a somewhat astringent, quinine-like bitterness. Still a fairly mellow Double IPA though. 070907

From 22 fl oz. bottle. Pours hazy orange with a lacing head. Dry raisin hoppy aroma. Raisin/apricot flavour, dry malty and quite fruity sweet. Fruity malty finish. Nice.

Bottled at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Lightly hazy ruby, creamy head. Rich hoppy aroma of sweaty lychee. Despite it’s full size it feels streamlined, yet fairly soft. Warming peppery alcohol is evident. The hops are evident, but not that overpowering so it remains balanced (as far as DIPAs go), shying away from stickyness and syrup. Powerful bitterness, but due to it’s body it’s actually less striking than in the 4.3% English cask bitter I just had.
