Elevation Beer Company DIPA
What the brewers say
“Double IPA with Strata, Sabro, and Nelson Sauvin.”
What our panel thought
“Hazy for style, with an uncommon touch of acid in the finish. Aroma is ripe stone fruit—apricots and peaches—with moderate tropical guava and mango, plus hints of papaya. Light dank sulfur. Flavor echoes nose, with overripe peach and guava, flowery orange zest, light lime note. Cotton candy–sweet finish.”
What our editors thought
"Rides the line between American and juicy, pushing a creamy peach-gummy nose that continues in the sip. Firm bitterness keeps it from devolving; doesn’t compromise either the fruit character or bitterness.”
