Double Dry Hopped Comm Ave

Tap to rate

A hazy canary-yellow double IPA that greets with fruit-forward aromas and an immediate wave of dank citrus. The profile pivots quickly toward brightness: orange juice and grapefruit give way to fresh pineapple, mango nectar and papaya. Medium-to-full bodied but soft in approach, it carries a moderate bitterness that never overwhelms the tropical fruit. At 8.2 percent, an approachable big beer — balanced enough for a warm afternoon, layered enough to hold attention.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Double Dry Hopped Comm Ave

◎ Appearance

Hazy canary-yellow with bright, diffuse clarity typical of the style. A dense, creamy head forms readily and clings to the glass throughout, leaving persistent rings of lacing. Fine carbonation maintains steady bubble streams and contributes to the soft, inviting visual presence.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with a dank, resinous citrus character before pivoting toward candied fruit aromatics. Orange peel and grapefruit zest merge into fresh pineapple and mango nectar, with subtle papaya undertones suggesting generous late-addition hopping. A whisper of floral spice threads through the profile without dominating.

◐ Taste

Entry is juicy and immediate, with bright citrus flavors—orange juice and grapefruit—establishing the foundation. Mid-palate expands into layered tropical notes: mango, pineapple, and papaya provide sweetness and depth. A moderate bitterness emerges clean and structured, never harsh, while the medium-to-full body feels soft and approachable rather than heavy.

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.
