Double Jack Imperial IPA –
With Double Jack, Firestone Walker amped up their signature Union Jack IPA to create an aggressively hopped, flawlessly balanced and dangerously drinkable imperial IPA.  Double Jack opens up with bright grapefruit and tangerine American hop aromas, courtesy of liberal dry hopping with Amarillo, Cascade, Centennial and Simcoe. Undertones of stone fruit are revealed upon first sip, followed by the essence of blue basil and pine. A sturdy pale and crystal malt backbone brings balance to high hop intensity.
