The Friday beer: Cask conditioned Whoop Pass Double IPA

When I heard this particular version was cask conditioned and then delivered in a keg I was intrigued. I've liked the big bold hops I've had in previous Whoop Pass pours and this one did not disappoint.

The cask conditioning mellowed out the beer and it went down smooth and easy. You can often find the Whoop Pass Double IPA around the Puget Sound area and it's a good one to try. Finding a cask conditioned beer sent out in a keg is rare. Be sure to give it a try if you do find it out there.
