Today you get a double portion of hops! This Double India Pale Ale (DIPA) is literally brewed with wheelbarrows full of tropical aromatic American hops!
Rich in a lot of fruity bitterness but well balanced because of the sweetness of the malt.
The aroma is predominantly fruity - pineapple, orange, mandarin and grapefruit. On the palate, a pronounced resininess that goes with this style. A DIPA is usually brewed with a lot of bitter and fruity hops, but Pineapple Slice DIPA is not too bitter due to the nice balance with the malt and the sweet pineapple. It remains an accessible and easy to drink beer with a long, round aftertaste.

The style
double ipa
DIPA stands for Double IPA, a beer style that originates from the American west coast in California - a Mecca for Californian bodybuilding of course, but also for strong India Pale Ales with lots of hops and tropical flavours! In a DIPA, you have both more bitterness and aromas than in a classic IPA, but above all a higher alcohol percentage that usually varies between 7.6% and 10.6%. Because this beer style is relatively new, there are other names for this style such as Imperial IPA or Triple IPA, but there is no clear distinction. And at the moment those names are used rather arbitrarily.
