Old Dominion's Double D IPA

I have said it before and I'll say it again: Packaging Sells! The craft beer industry is exploding, and that's a great thing! Unfortunately with all these available craft beers, the wall of new beers to try can be a bit overwhelming. If I am not in the store for something specific, it is often the labels that catch my eyes. Needless to say, Old Dominion's Double D...um.... eh hem... caught my eye. Thank goodness for great packaging though, because this is pretty tasty.

Double D pours a clear gold with a thick, one finger off-white head. A great combination of pine and citrus notes on the nose. When you sip this brew, give it time in your mouth so you can get the full gambit of flavors. You get a quick tang of malty sweetness, followed by citrus hop goodness. It finishes strong with big, bitter pine hop flavors. All in all, I really enjoyed the balance of this brew. It runs the spectrum of the expected Imperial
IPA flavors, and at 9% ABV and 90 IBU's, it can hang with the best!
