Everything you need to make beer at home is in the box. This Double IPA recipe kit comes with every pre-measured ingredient you need to brew Martin's Double IPA, a 5-gallon all-grain batch, from grain to glass.

The Double IPA, or Imperial IPA, pushes the style to its limits: more malt, far more hops, and an alcohol strength that runs well past a standard IPA. It came out of California in the late 1990s, with brewers competing to see how much hop character a beer could carry before it fell apart. A well-made one hides its strength, staying dry and drinkable while the aroma turns almost overwhelming.

Galaxy and Nectaron lead here with heavy tropical and stone fruit notes, and a dose of corn sugar keeps the finish dry despite the gravity.
