Style of Beer: Double New England / Hazy IPA

I am from: Waltham, Massachusetts, USA (Crafted by Mighty Squirrel Brewing Co.)

The Story: Following the runaway success of their flagship Cloud Candy—which was born in 2018 after six months of relentless R&D—the brewing team at Mighty Squirrel decided it was time to up the ante. Armed with the same passion and creativity, they spent over a year meticulously refining a bigger, bolder recipe. The goal wasn't just to make it stronger, but to make it "Cloudier" and "Candier." The result is Double Cloud Candy, a masterclass in modern hazy brewing that double dry-hops the beloved original flavor profile to new heights while sitting at a robust 7.8% ABV.

Why You'll Love Me: It is an incredibly plush, intensely juicy Double IPA that takes everything you love about the original and turns the volume up to eleven. It pours a striking, deeply opaque golden-orange in the glass beneath a dense, creamy white head. The nose immediately erupts with a massive, alluring bouquet of overripe tropical fruits—think lush papaya, sweet peach, and vibrant mango. On the palate, a pillowy-soft, velvety texture carries heavy, decadent waves of candied citrus and ripe melon. Despite its bigger body and elevated ABV, it expertly hides its alcohol heat, coasting into a luscious, smooth, and dangerously drinkable finish that leaves you craving the next sip.
