🌍 United Kingdom · New England Double IPA · One of 3 New England Double IPAs in hopIQ

Polly's flagship DIPA and the beer that put them on the map — featured in Matt Curtis's book 'Modern British Beer'. A five-hop lineup of Simcoe, Galaxy, Mosaic, Citra and Ekuanot makes it sticky, juicy, piney and dank. The benchmark for the brewery's hazy double IPAs.

About New England Double IPA

Style guide · what to expect · how to find alternatives

What is a New England 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 New England Double IPA

Tulip glass
Recommended for this style

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

Store in a cool, dark place. Check the best-before date on the label for guidance.
