I find myself thinking burnt malt when I drink this.

It's a good beer, but not great and does not stand up to the other great DPA's available to beer freaks like us.

Not as much lingering hop bitterness as I enjoy.

Not really a fresh hop flavor but rather up front bitterness to match the roasted/burnt caramel flavor.

Try this beer if you are looking to sample all of the available DPA's But don't go out of your way for it. Many others are better.

Moylan's Brewery - Moylander Double IPA

Look - Pours a clear copper amber with a great head. Sticky lacing. Some carbonation, calmer cousin to the Hopsickle.

Smell - Sweet bready malts in the aroma. Faint but mouth-watering hop profile.

Taste - Sweet malts and then a creeper bitter hop comes in and amplifies for a bit until it is fully on blast. Well done!

Mouthfeel - Rests bitter hops. Sticky and malty at the same time. Not very boozy at all. Rather refreshing. Very drinkable and smooth.

Overall - Well balanced brew. Enhanced malt profile works well with the super bitter creeper hops.

Pours a nice mild golden color with a huge frothy head into my glass. I've had this in my fridge for a few days.

Despite what appears to be a big dose of citrus and pine resin upfront, it seems quite humble. Malt is sweet and buttery.

A lot more pine resin upfront. Decent amount of hop bitterness coats the mouth and the malt comes off as a bit "chewy" as a result.

Lots of alcohol heat here and it does overwhelm the palate a bit. Not a serious impediment as you have a very nice dose of bitterness to finish.

A good dose of bitter makes this a good choice. The alcohol heat may be too much for some though but if you age it, you lose more of the hop character. Choices.
