The Brü Revü – Southern Star Pro-Am 2012

Southern Star is a Texas brewery located in Conroe, TX that makes a great Pale Ale and Blonde Ale.  Their Pro-Am series is a yearly competition where they take the winning homebrewers recipe and brew it at a larger scale and distribute it.  The 2012 Pro-Am is a Double IPA and was fantastic.  It poured a deep amber with plenty of grapefruit on the nose. The taste had a hint of dank hops with a load of grapefruit and earthiness that was phenomenal.  It had a taste profile very similar to Deviant Dale’s although slightly less intense.  As it warmed the dank and resiny hops came through in this creamy smooth Double IPA.  Grab this one while you can as it won’t be around for long and you don’t want to miss one of the best Texas brewed Double IPA’s
