Review: East Brother Double IPA

Review: East Brother Double IPA

East Brother’s latest is a big fat double IPA, clocking in at 8% alcohol and loaded with Simcoe and Azaaca hops. It’s hugely creamy but surprisingly a little bit sour, a mango-laced body countered by notes of grapefruit peel, piney hops, and a touch of white wine vinegar. Some baking spice  gives the finish a lift, but there’s a whiff of a sour milk note throughout that ultimately put me off a bit.

8.8% abv.
