American Double IPA - ABV: 9.2%
I wouldn't normally blog about a supermarket beer, but with this being from Brewdog, I thought I'd check it out...
Don't get me wrong, I love a good IPA.
BUT... There's a difference between a nicely balanced, hoppy IPA and a beer that's so high in ABV that it overpowers the flavour. This beer is the latter.
Somewhere deep in the bowels of this IPA is a well balanced ale with citrusy tones...
I tried, but couldn't find it. The alcohol content is so high I couldn't taste much at all...
I really can't recommend this. Sorry Brewdog...
Verdict: 1.5/5
