Beer Tasting: Otto's Double D
This is a double IPA from Otto's in State College, PA. Poured from a growler the next day. This was one of six on tap.
Have you tasted this beer? Let us know what you think. As a suggestion, try to keep the review as brief as possible for each of the following: appearance; smell; taste; mouthfeel; and drinkability.
Appearance
Adam: copper brown
Bryan: solid amber with hints of red
Smell
Adam: faint nose, sweet, hoppy
Bryan: citrus, pine; reminiscent of 120 min from DFH
Taste
Adam: tangy & bitter, rounded out with malt
Bryan: big wonderful grapefruit, hoppy; light malt flavor
Mouthfeel
Adam: substantial coating, not watery
Bryan: medium body; consistent texture throughout; lively without being overly carbonated
Drinkability
Adam: I love double IPAs and this is an awesome example
Bryan: very good; even though it wreaked havoc on my allergies
Seconds?
Adam: uhuh...but the growler is empty....State College is too far away!
Bryan: yes, for sure

The tangy, citrus like aftertaste of this beer is memorable. Excellent!
Is this the Jeff that I visited Otto's with?
Which reminds me. I have to finish that post and get it up here ;-)
