Double Jack
Double Jack launched in 2009 as one of the early West Coast double IPAs, was retired in 2016 and has returned twice since, most recently as a limited 2026 release for the brewery's 30th anniversary. Four kettle additions and triple dry hopping build grapefruit, tangerine and pineapple over resinous pine and a note of stone fruit. Pale and crystal malts give a firm, slightly caramel backbone that carries the strength, and the finish stays bitter and dry.
