You may remember it as Divine Reserve No. 11, but the much-loved Saint Arnold Double IPA has returned as a year-round beer.

Being a DIPA it was quite the hop bomb, but not insanely so. It’s also not a syrupy sweet version of the style. If you had to compare it to something, it’s more like a Sierra Nevada Torpedo Extra IPA than Avery’s Maharajah or Breckenridge 471.

It’s a respectable 9% ABV, so you won’t want to blast through too many of these in a sitting. It will be available on tap and in 22 oz. bomber bottles.

It will be in wider distribution before you know it, but here’s what Saint Arnold rep Frank Mancuso has to say about where to get it initially.

Note there’s no firm date there, but follow those twitter streams or mine and I’ll let you know when I hear that it’s showing up somewhere locally.

Here’s the entire press release.
