Orlando Brewing Doble IPA

Brewed by Orlando Brewing
Style: Imperial/Double IPA
Orlando, Florida USA

aroma is of nutty malt as well as hops which display little more then general bitterness and little in the way of esters. flavor is more nuttiness to near dopplebock levels. bitterness is strong and bracing and largely without esters. excellent lacing and filmy head. nearly sunny appearance defies its depth. as the beer warms and opens some peach finally comes to the table. by far the best beer from this brewer.

Tap @ Orlando Brewing. Copper color, white head. It just looks sticky. Heavenly hop florals. Some fusel. Mostly hops. Big Citrus. Flavor is huge hop. Stick sweet malt. Big Balls were used for making this beer. Medium to Heavy bodied. Finishes with a long lasting lingering hop citrus bomb. 30nov08.

Tap @ brewery pours copper, white head. Aroma is fresh, grassy hops with some caramel and malts. Taste, hoppy, some sugar sweetness and caramel malts. Hops really had some freshness to the beer. Pretty tasty.

St Patty’s Day beer selection after a horid day of work. Big head, long lacing, dark orange color, medium hop aroma, full bodied mouthfeel at first, not a tremendous amount of hoppy blast of ipa I was expecting

Part of sample tray at the brewery. Was more impressed with the place than the beer. Average Double IPA

This is Josh Oakes recommended beer, so I had it, at the brewpub Decently crafted DIPA with hoppiness and good offsetting malt, although a bit of sourness I so detect. Average mouthfeel. Some hop aroma, decent grapefruit looking body and some lace.

Golden-amber. Fruity hoppiness in the nose with lots of chewy crystal malts. Chewy body with light pineapple esters, citrus hop and too much crystal malt for my taste. OK example, but more hop less malt is my recipe.

Sample @ brewery taproom. Bright deep golden, a warm color. Too much yeast. Smells sweeter and yeastier than it does hoppy. Super syrupy! Has a good hop character but the syrup character is not good.
