on THE TAPHANDLE

Whoop Pass Double IPA, an Imperial/Double IPA by Silver City Restaurant & Brewery

On tap at Silver City Restaurant & Brewery, Silverdale, Washington.

Oh, the joy! Whoop Pass is wonderful. What was presented to me was exquisite to behold. The body was orange, with an almost red center, and a faint yellow aura, especially at the bottom of the pint glass. The head was thin, white, and consistent. The lacing left behind during drinking was excellent, consisting of intricate sheets.

The aroma was of apple and orange, bolstered by caramel and alcohol notes. The flavor was the same and very bitter. The ale felt nice and heavy on the tongue. Whoop Pass engaged the entire mouth.

I had this ale with Silver City's BBQ Pulled Pork sandwich and they worked very well together. Another happy beer experience courtesy of Silver City.
