Eastlake Brewery Got Dang! Juicy DDH Double IPA. Citra & Mosaic & Azacca & Mandarina Bavaria.8.5 % ABV. Eastlake Craft Brewery, Midtown Global Market, Minneapolis, MN.
Very hazy, very bright golden, with a huge cloud-white head that lasts long and leaves lacing.
In the nose: Bright, juicy, jubilant citrus notes abound, with touches of tropical, too. Sweetness spreads assuredly. All the lemon and lime and grapefruit, too, mixed with mango, pineapple, passionfruit, etc.
In the mouth: Boards the palate mildly, politely, spreading hop fruit flavors, some juiciness, some deliciousness. Mild bitterness, but strong flavors. Juicy, tangy, a touch of sweet, but ending dry. Loads of hoppy goodness, and the beautiful buzz of increasing alcohol, making everything a little more pleasant. Judicious malt adds to the pleasure. Just about yum a dum dum.
This big, juicy kviek comes at you dripping with a punch of vanilla, mango, and dank pineapple thanks to copious amounts of Citra, Mosaic, Azacca, and Mandarina Bavaria hops. Golden Promise malt and Hornindal kviek yeast from Norway enhance the lupulin fruit bouquet. Got Dang!
I'm embarrassed to admit this, but I don't know what this "got dang" means. Is it some newfangled way to say "Goddamn" without getting the church ladies upset?
