Description:
Our take on the West Coast-style Double India Pale Ale, The Oracle places hop intensity first & foremost, making only the slightest concession to malt & balance. The fireworks start with the aromatic punch of dry-hop sessions with hop varieties from the Pacific Northwest. Resinous, citrusy hop flavors mixed with aggressive bitterness from a massive kettle addition deliver on that aromatic promise. (Description provided by company)

Comments
I've Seen The Light
Bell's Oracle Double IPA pours a straw yellow with a creamy head. It smells aromatic and citrusy. The flavor is bright and crisp, with a fairly strong alcohol taste that isn't unpleasant. Overall a pretty straightforward DIPA, and that's not a bad thing.
