🌍 United States · Double IPA · One of 89 Double IPAs in hopIQ

The regal upgrade of Fresh Squeezed — same citrus-heavy hop philosophy, dialed to 9% and layered with more Citra and Mosaic than a beer this drinkable has a right to be. Big peach, mandarin, and grapefruit aromatics, a firm malt base and a lingering dry finish. Deschutes' answer to what a proper Northwestern DIPA can taste like.

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 tropical, hoppy, citrusy character as Royal Fresh will score highly even if brewed in a different country or under a different sub-style name.

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.
