Drygate Brewing Co – Double Disco, Mango Smoothie IPA (7.5% ABV)

Hi there fellow beer lovers,

Welcome back to the eternal Hoptimists.

This was another one that Peter picked up for me to have a try, I must admit I don’t have a lot of experience with continental beers. All I know is they are very well known for being strong, and like to creep up on you.

  1. Name: Double Disco
  2. Brewery: Drygate Brewing Co
  3. Aroma :  Fresh Mango, with a hit sourness and bitter hop
  4. Appearance : Darkened orange, very hazy with a thin white film.
  5. Body :  Medium to heavy bodied, smooth mouthfeel, well carbonated but poor head retention.
  6. Taste : A strong sweet kick of orange marmalade with which mellows to a spiced boozy draw.

Wow, this one was tasty, I love orange, and this certainly delivered on that front. It was a bit sweeter then I was expecting but I’m not going to complain and the spiced finished really rounded this one off and made you want to go back for another mouthful!

Our overall rating: 4.0/ 5.0
