Winner of the first Olde Hickory ProAm! Alex Buerckholtz, owner of Hops & Vines in Asheville, NC, was the winner of the First Olde Hickory Pro Am competition with this very fine beer. Our brew master says: 71lbs of high alpha hops were used to make this beer. That’s just over 20 grams of hops used for each pint! DBH was brewed with 2 row barley, Carapils and Crisp Crystal 45 malts and fermented to 7% alc/vol. DBH was hopped with 5 different West Coast hops: Chinook, Columbus, Simcoe, Centennial and Cascade. Additionally, DBH was twice dry hopped with different combinations of these hops. The net result is an amazing aroma of ripe juicy fruit mixed in with a bouquet of spring flowers. DBH was brewed to a level of bitterness of 108 IBU’s, and leaves a lingering bitterness; it is, after all, a Double IPA!

Big amber pour, near hazy, tall and tight white head, big lacing. HUGE hopped aroma, piney, grapefruits, some sweet peaches and oranges, more pine, woodsy oak, then maybe some malts in there to offset, but barely. BIG bitter hoppy flavor too: grapefruits, peaches, spruce, wet oak, a touch of honey, resin, more hops... You get the picture. This is a hop bomb by all means. Loved it!

Aroma is SERIOUSLY hoppy, typically woody with a strong evergreen overtone, screaming "Great IPA!" Pours an appetizing clear copper with a fairly thick, if not too persistent, fluffy off-white head. Strongly hoppy flavor has a woody core and a strong evergreen note with herbal and citrus hints and a fair amount of bitterness. Lively, fizzy texture makes it dance on your tongue; you feel it going down the pipes! This is a must for any IPA lover.

Clean East Coast style IPA. Citrus hops with a bit of evergreen balanced by a generous caramel malt body. Medium bodied and fairly tame. It's been a while since I've had a meaty IPA and this hit the spot.
