MC Hammer was a chill MC with those baggy pants and more moves than a chess master.* Mike Hammer was a hot headed, hard boiled, hard hitting, and hard living private eye.** This brew is so cool it’s a Frost Hammer, a double dose of IPA chill and swill. It’s also a heavy hitter at 8.2% and finds itself at the other end of the scale from Mascot’s super suds light lager, aptly named Lightweight.
A hazy muted orange pour, with a bright white frosty hammer head. An aroma that’s super tropical juicy, mango, stone fruit? The word intense comes to mind. And intense it is, kickass juicy with a tingle to go with the double back bitters. It seems counterintuitive, *** but a big swig smooths it all out a bit, but with level of intensity I would guess big swigging is not sustainable.
I guessed correctly and it’s back to normal quaffs after a second big swig put the hammer down.
Everything a double should be and more, sometimes much more. Especially brewed for double IPA lovers.
