By using a single hop and single malt, Crazy Mountain Brewing delivers a concentrated and educative taste of Galaxy Hops’ pineapple, passionfruit, and citrus punch in their Double SMaSH IPA. With only 1,200 bottles in existence, this rare super-hazy treat blasts our palates with a dazzlingly focused taste of tropical Galaxy Hops and nutty Maris Otter Malts in a robust 8.9% ABV DIPA body that hopheads will love.

Aromas of tangerine marmalade and toasted wheat waft up from a cloudy mango juice-like pour. Distinct passionfruit and papaya notes from Galaxy Hops catapult into clean citrusy peach pulp and a light veil of bitter grapefruit rind. Maris Otter Malts add hints of almond-filled biscuits, further accented by a convergence of Saccharomyces Trois and London Ale yeast for even more intense fruitiness.

When the tropical fruit fervor of Galaxy Hops meets the bready depth of Maris Otter Malts and 8.9% ABV joins the party, the results are juicy, boozy, and clean. Teach yourself what Galaxy Hops taste like in their purest palate-pleasing form.
