About This Beer
Our most popular seasonal ale, YuleSmith is brewed twice a year in two different, yet similar, styles: For summertime, it’s an Imperial/Double IPA.

Qualities
During the summer, YuleSmith is transformed into a big, hoppy, Double IPA. The enormous load of hops requires a substantial malt background to create just the right balance for a Double IPA. Lighter in color, summer YuleSmith is available around the 4th of July and is packaged in a red, white, and blue bottle.

"Dobbel Dram is a double IPA made with European style hops rather than US hops. This beer is also heavily dry hopped in the aging tank for the extra hop taste and aroma. This IPA also has a high focus on malt flavor combined with more esters from the yeast than is common with the US style IPA. The result is an IPA very different in flavor.

Made from Marris Otter malt, wheat malt and Crystal
malt. Serve at 10-12C or 50-55F. Goes well with spicy food and grilled meat."

"The Dutch have always been a sailing nation. Our sailors were considered the best by many nations for centuries. But no matter how experienced they were and how hard they worked every ship caught in a storm had to lick her wounds when it was all over. Nowadays De Molen offers real men and women the opportunity to resist the storm of this Double IPA. Try it and discover how malts, yeast, hops and dry hopping can create a great bitter sweet mixture of orange, grapefruit and spices...

Double IPA
Strength (ABV): 
9.0% ABV
Bitterness (IBU): 
78 IBU

Endeavour is a double IPA. The color is deep amber with a light, creamy head. The nose starts off with a touch of citrus but then turns decidedly into peaches. The taste starts off with creamy malt resulting from the pale 2 row and caramel malts and Saint Arnold yeast. The hop bitter starts low then builds to a crescendo, but always maintains a balance even in its big finish. The hop flavor continues to be peaches, an interesting manifestation of the Columbus, Simcoe and Centennial hops.

Bitterness (IBU): 
85 IBU

When the loveable "hopheads" at Humpy's Great Alaskan Alehouse requested a winter version of alehouse favorite Sockeye Red IPA, our brewers instinctively spawned CoHoHo Imperial IPA.

CoHoHo begins with generous measures of pale two-row and specialty malts along with spirit-boosters like brown sugar and honey. Hefty doses of Cascade, Centennial and Simcoe hops beautifully balance that outrageous malt bill while juniper berries heighten the festive character of this exuberant beer.

Make Merry all Winter Long...

Self-Defined Style: 
Double IPA
Strength (ABV): 
8.0% ABV
Bitterness (IBU): 
140 IBU

To pay homage to the original hop headed hero of Short’s Brewing Company, this beer was made as a 30th birthday gift for Joe Short. A double IPA, this beast employs a sizable malt bill, but it’s the ridiculous amounts of hops added to the boil every 4 minutes, for 120 minutes, that showcases this beer. A fruity, floral, piney intensity of hops penetrates through the caramelized malt profile. This well balanced, full bodied brew finishes bitter with a punch of fresh citrus from the addition of lemon and orange zest post fermentation.
