TRY THE DRAKE'S DOUBLE DRY (HOPPED) IPA!
We double dry-hopped a batch of our regular IPA (with Chinook, Cascade, & Columbus) - once on 3/30 and then again on 4/6. The result, we think, is a delightfully tasteful, aromatic, and altogether wonderful beer. Lots of nose and flavor! Additionally, we decided to leave it unfiltered to retain all its luster and character.
So...... a "double scoop" of Chinook and Cascade hops were added. This means an additional 16 pounds people! Or, put another way... more than a pound of extra hops per barrel! Drake's Double Dry can be found at a few select area pubs for a short time.
Cheers! And, thanks for reading. -- John Martin

ReplyDeleteOh and I like the blog. Good stuff
I have to admit, I'm a newbie to the craft beers of California, but I can appreciate a delicious brew when I taste some. I had my first triple D today at Beachwood BBQ in Seal Beach Ca. First, I was impressed with the color, next came the aroma as I dipped my nose over the rim, after my first sip I was pleasantly surprised by the sweetness mixed with the zest of the hops. I'm a fan!
