Commercial Description:
Stoudt's Double IPA is a strong, full-bodied ale with an intense hop character and deep golden color. This unusual brew is characteristic of the newly recognized style of extremely hoppy and malty ales of American origin. The Double IPA is our strongest beer with an alcohol of over 10% abv and bitterness of more than 75 IBU's. Multiple kettle hop additions and generous dry hopping contribute to the powerful yet smooth and fragrant hop character of this beer. 10% abv.

12oz bottle from Total Wine (Tampa, FL). Pours a lightly hazy amber color with a thin white head that settles quickly. Aroma is floral hops, citrus, grapefruit, light pine, caramel, hints of honey and light biscuit. Flavor is sweet and floral with notes of citrus, grapefruit, caramel, some floral esters and light spice. Generally medium body with a floral hop finish.

On cask @ Stoudts. Amber with a dense off white head. Sweet aroma of citrus, pine, caramel and toffee. The flavor starts sweet then the bitterness fades in and then the beer finishes sweet. Medium body, on cask so the carbonation was very mild, and a syrupy mouth feel. A bit sweet for me but still a solid IIPA.

This, to me, is what an American IPA should be. Aromas of floral hops and malt with a hint of bread. On the pour it is a nice hazy gold color with a thick soapy head that sticks around and to the pint. Very smooth palate with wonderful citrus hops, sweet malt , and slight alcohol burn. A lucky find by my wonderful wife. We will buy this brew again......nice job Stoudts!

12oz bottle. a little aged but refridgerated at least..... pours a lighter golden apple cider brown with a soapy white head..... aroma of some papery malt and sweet fruit..... sweet, fruity and syrupy throughout with very little bitternes at all. not a fresh sample.

12oz botte 8.22.09. Pours a clear glowing orange with a small white froth. Aroma of green hops, salty biscuits, alcohol. Flavor is salty bitter pine, crackers, quick cleaner finish. Something a bit fruity with a little bit of skunk. Body is clean and not sticky, fluffy but smooth nice subtle pillowy carbonation. Decent.

Has a bitter sweet taste. The 10.6% ABV suggests that it has some bite to it, but it’s rather enjoyable. Very relaxing and enjoyable.

12 ounce bottle from Total Wine Triangle Plaza, Raleigh, NC. Pours a slightly hazy golden orange color with a medium head. Fair head retention and lacing. Hoppy floral and citrus hop aroma with a bit of nuttiness and caramel. Taste is toffee, caramel with citrus and floral hop notes. For a DIPA I would like more bitterness. Faint alcohol notes. Medium bodied. Decent beer.

(bottle - 12 oz) Clear orange in color with a creamy off-white head. Aroma is sweet and citrusy with lots of juicy hop and citrus notes, along with a nice floral sweetness. Flavor begins sweet and citrusy with a bitter and dry hop middle. Some flowery and apple notes come through at the finish. Flavor doesn’t last as long as I thought it would, and the alcohol is well hidden.
