Hefty piles of malt and equally weighty additions of intensely flavorful and aromatic hops makes this double IPA stand up to its inspiration brewed on the east coast. Supported with a dry and crisp body, the flavors of tropical fruit, peach and pine will fill your head with visions of hops. Off the Topper IIPA will pour with a slight haze, making an otherwise deep golden-orange beer appear to shine in your favorite glass, while the persistent white foam head provides a robust footing for the copious hop aroma to permeate into your psyche.

If you enjoyed Heavy Hopper IIPA , you'll love this kit!
When I want to "treat myself" this is the Beer I choose. Such full body, and great Hoppy-ness flavor! There are a ton of Hops in this one, plus two liquid Hop-shots....it's the Best!

Hoppy and strong, but color way off
I brewed a double batch for my annual vacation with my buddies and their families. Was excited to make a clone brew of one of my favorite beers but ultimately I was a little disappointed, as it was a little on the Sweet side and very dark like an amber which is not quite like heady topper‘s golden hue.

Awesome!
This turned out amazing! Unbelievable hop aroma! Just as good as any big hop beer at the store. I added 2lbs of flaked oats to the specialty grains for mouth feel.. 1.079 og
