DDH IPA (Double Dry Hopped IPA)
At True Story Brewing Co. we brew and experiment with dry hopping in our big, juicy DDH IPA style beers.
Double Dry-Hopped IPA, or DDH IPA, is a variation on the popular India Pale Ale style that is gaining popularity among craft beer enthusiasts. As the name suggests, a DDH IPA is an IPA that has been dry-hopped not once, but twice, resulting in a beer that is bursting with hop flavor and aroma.
One of the key characteristics of an IPA is its strong hop character. This is achieved through the process of dry-hopping, which involves adding hops to the beer after fermentation has finished. This allows the hop aromas and flavors to be extracted without adding bitterness, resulting in a beer that is packed with hop character but still balanced and drinkable.
A DDH IPA takes this process a step further by adding a second round of dry-hopping. This results in an even more intense hop character, with more pronounced aromas and flavors. The result is a beer that is bursting with hop character, making it a great choice for hopheads who are looking for their next fix.

DDH IPA
Despite its intense hop character, a DDH IPA is not overly bitter. Many brewers strive for a balanced and drinkable beer, with just enough bitterness to provide structure and support the hop flavors. This makes the DDH IPA an approachable and enjoyable beer for a wide range of drinkers, not just those who are hardcore hopheads.
In addition to its intense hop character, a DDH IPA is often hazy and juicy, with a smooth and silky mouthfeel. This is due to the use of high-protein grains and the addition of large amounts of hops, which can contribute to a hazy appearance and a creamy mouthfeel. This makes the DDH IPA a highly drinkable and enjoyable beer, with a unique and satisfying mouthfeel.
In short, the DDH IPA is a bold and flavorful variation on the classic India Pale Ale style. With its intense hop character and smooth, juicy mouthfeel, it is a beer that is perfect for hopheads and craft beer enthusiasts alike. If you are looking for a delicious and well-crafted beer that is packed with hop character, then a DDH IPA is worth trying.
