Oskar Blues Can-o-bliss Double IPA

Oskar Blues Can-o-bliss Double IPA. 


8.2 % ABV. Oskar Blues Brewing, Longmount, CO. 

Slightly hazy, bright golden hue, slim white head. 

In the nose: The dank is in full effect. Huge citrus and pine, astoundingly resiny, all things good and sticky-icky. Hella promising. 

In the mouth: Pow! Big bitterness blasts the palate. Juicy, more dankness, more resin, grapefruit, orange, tangerine, and lemon/lime making their moves all over the mouth. The one has all the goods. Fierce hoppy flavor, juicy, dry, acerbic, just enough of the booze, full body, full flavor, everything I yearn for in a double IPA. This is the good stuff. Day-yum, a dum, dum. 

DIPA is chock full of Citra hops and delivers a one-two punch of hop aroma and blissful flavors of passionfruit and citrus, balanced with a substantial malt backbone.
