Six Point Hi Res

Six Point Hi Res

STYLE: American Double / Imperial IPA
STATS: 11.1% ABV

PENDING

RATER: Che - RATE: X.X/5


Pours a clear amber color w/ a thin, white head. The aroma is largely tropical citrus w/ a hint of the alcohol coming through. When first tasting this, it didn't have a huge hop flavor that I was anticipating. It actually was very balanced on the tongue. Picking up grapefruit and malt, w/ very lil hops suprisingly. Even though I could smell it, the alcohol is well hidden in the taste. For having a double digit abv, this is very drinkable. Especially considering its an IPA & theyre not my favorite. A "must try" for you hop heads.

Odell Myrcenary Double IPA

Odell Myrcenary Double IPA

STYLE: American Double / Imperial IPA
STATS: 9.3% ABV

This beer pours hazy golden orange, moderate fairly creamy head. Didn’t get a overwhelming feeling in terms of smell, a bit of citrus, orange rind, maybe some piney hops. Citrus, hops, some malty sweetness, some bitterness, but it doesn’t linger. One of the best Double IPAs I’ve had.

RATER: Che - RATE: 4/5


This beer has a hazy, light copper color w/ a thick white head. It has a distinct, citrus smell that is slightly floral. The floral notes are also present in the taste. For being a double IPA, this beer is not as hoppy as one would expect. Its crisp, clear & smooth w/ only a hint of alcohol despite the higher ABV. Be careful with this one, it will sneak up on ya. I'm not an IPA guy so this is one of the best double IPAs I've had. True hop heads may not agree.

RATER: Joey - RATE: 3.8/5
