A Note on This Beer

Hey, you! Smile More!

No, don’t grin at me all awkward and confused-like! Anchorage's hopmasters just released their juiced-up, boozy-Suzy-of-an-IPA, DDH Smile More, and it’s as plush, nectarous, and luxuriously tangy as we dreamt it would be.

To craft it, the world-renowned Alaskan brewers used loads of Phantasm Powder to accentuate the flavors of Smile More’s 100% Sabro Hop profile. The powder’s made from freeze-dried Sauvignon Blanc grape skins, which contain a lot of thiols — the same stuff that produces the fruity characteristics in hops!

Crack open a can, and aromas of freshly sliced mangoes and apricots swirl on the nose. Take a sip, and swells of tropical coconut, ripe pineapple, and plush passionfruit erupt on the palate!

Let's just say, if you miss your shot at Anchorage’s Smile More IPA… you might just smile less. And we don’t want that!

Anchorage is one of Thrillist’s Best Breweries in America!

This is probably my favorite smoothie style sour ale that I've had from any company so far. It tastes like a loaf of banana bread with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Everything I get from this brewery is always good. This one is good also. U can taste the pineapple and cream. Not a whole lot of banana taste.

Another magical creation from Energy City. This one is definitely a must buy. Tastes just like a banana cream pie with pineapple. Fantastic!

A tad too sweet for me, but the flavors hit the nail on the head. Very smooth and thick, huge punch of banana and whip cream that get broken up with a nice tart pineapple blast. Definitely need a slushie machine for this one

Energy City is simply superior to most breweries. I haven’t been more impressed with anyone else. everything they touch seems to turn to gold. would definitely recommend

Well I'll be damned if this doesn't taste exactly how it claims. Not a flavor combo that I particularly enjoy (I think it's the banana... 🤔). BUT, if pineapple banana cream pie is your thing, give it a try and prepare to have your mind blown!
