Double Trouble Double IPA
This DIPA contains a lot of malt and low cohumulone hops to soothe your bitten tongue. The numerous hop additions and techniques spread hop flavor through the whole beer experience. The small dose of Chinook adds a raspy bitter edge that enhances the beer. Use a healthy yeast starter to ferment this bigger beer.
