Curt Hadley is drinking a Double Des Moines IPA, Double IPA by Confluence Brewing Company at Town of Wingate
From my 1st visit to Des Moines the namesake IPA was a fave... This recent trip I found DIPA... SCORE!!! This one does NOT feel as big as it is, yet the taste of the original with a bit of pine/smoke and a nice balance shines through. Until my next...

Curt Hadley is drinking a Dream Catcher Black IPA by Lion Bridge Brewing Company at Town of Wingate
Don't judge a book by its cover or a beer by its color... Nice dark color with a roasty/malt nose going down with a nice hop finish. As someone who loves most beer styles thins mashup is of 2 of my fave styles and I love it. Porter/stout meets IPA.

Curt Hadley is drinking a Morninâ Delight (2023) by Toppling Goliath Brewing Co. at Iowa Taproom
Some folks have chocolate cake for desert... I favor a Russian Imperial Stout - judge me nowđ¤. This one is spot-on! Espresso / maple and some cocoa but NOT thick as a brick. This is a winner!!!

Love this DIPA... Not trying to hide the hops make me đ although the hop-head in me still craves more... Nice balance though and this one is spot-on for the masses!
