DIPA

Tap to rate

Silver at the 2018 World Beer Cup Imperial IPA category. Late-hopped with Simcoe and Mosaic for massive citrus and pine aroma with resiny notes of orange, tangelo and peach. Big but balanced — the hop weight is there without the boozy heat.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for DIPA

◎ Appearance

Pale golden-yellow with excellent clarity and a fine white head that clings to the glass in delicate lacing. The beer displays bright, crystalline transparency characteristic of a well-executed Double IPA. Carbonation is present and lively without excessive aggression.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with prominent citrus—orange and tangelo notes lead, followed by ripe peach and stone fruit. Pine and resinous hop character provide backbone, creating a complex but cohesive bouquet. The aromatic profile is lifted and expressive without any harsh alcohol notes or solvent character.

◐ Taste

The palate delivers substantial hop bitterness balanced against a clean, restrained malt foundation. Citrus and peach flavors persist from the nose, with orange pith and piney undertones weaving through the mid-palate. The beer is full-bodied and mouth-filling, yet the bitterness resolves without harsh edges or boozy heat despite the 8.5% ABV.

◑ Finish

Tulip glass

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.

About Double IPA

Style guide · what to expect · how to find alternatives

What is a Double IPA?

IPAs are hop-forward ales with 5.5–7.5% ABV and IBU 40–70+. Bold hop aroma — citrus, tropical, resinous — with firm bitterness and a dry, clean finish.

Finding a similar Double IPA

hopIQ matches by flavor profile — not just style label. A beer with the same hoppy, citrusy, peach character as DIPA will score highly even if brewed in a different country or under a different sub-style name.
