Double Actuator
Double Actuator is one of the three beers Bottle Logic packaged in its opening year, and it grew out of a pilot batch the founders brewed at home. The double IPA is hopped with Columbus, Centennial, Mosaic and Citra and then dry-hopped again with Mosaic and Citra. Soft pine and citrus open the palate, followed by blueberry, mango and papaya, although no fruit goes into the brew. The beer pours clear rather than hazy, and a firm, lasting bitterness holds the malt sweetness and the alcohol in check.
