Southern Tier 2X Juice Jolt Extra Juicy Double IPA


 Southern Tier 2X Juice Jolt Extra Juicy Double IPA.

9.5 % ABV, 20 IBU. Southern Tier Brewing, Lakewood, NY. 

Clear, bright golden hue, slim white head. 

In the nose: big time citrus, poignantly pungent, grapefruit and tangerine. Traced of tropical. 

In the mouth: slightly bitter up front, hoppy on the palate, then comes the juicy. Yep, they got the juicy, as well as the strong. Lacking in the bitter, too heavy on the sweet. Medium bodied, juicy finish. (Did I say that? What did I mean?)

This is a trend that I am not overly fond of, but to each their own. 

This Double IPA is dialed to the max with its 9.5% ABV on top of its easy drinking flavor and massively juicy punch. Brewed with Mosaic, Citra, Idaho 7, Simcoe, HBC630, Amarillo and CTZ hops as well as 2-Row Pale malt and oats.
