IPA Week Line-up

1. Huell Melon Wheat IPA

Wheat IPAs combine the taste of an American IPA with a wheat beer’s crisp, 'zing' to create hoppy goodness in a glass!

ABV: 6% | IBU: 40

2. West Coast IPA

The West Coast IPA was the beginning of the fruity hop explosion. This style gets credit for exploring the rowdy, fruity flavors in hops, while shedding some of the bitterness. That’s not to say that West Coast IPAs aren’t bitter; they are. But that bitterness is balanced with an exceptionally clean, crisp body, higher carbonation, and big tropical fruit notes (It is a “West Coast” IPA, after all).

ABV: 6.5% | IBU: 45

3. New England IPA

A New England IPA is a style of American IPA that features an intense, tropical fruit centric, hop aroma and flavor. It’s heavily dry hopped to the point of being hazy and has a fuller body, smoother flavor, and less perceived bitterness than typical IPAs.

ABV: 6% | IBU: 35

4. Bajra Brut IPA

A Brut IPA is a fizzy, champagne-like and light-bodied beer with plenty of hop aromatics. This new style of IPA is named after the word 'brut' used in the champagne world to describe how dry the wine is.

ABV: 5.5% | IBU: 45

ABV: 6% | IBU: 50

6. Pomelo IPA

Session 'Indian' Pale Ale with refreshing aromas and juiciness of pomelo, balanced with American tropical and aroma hops, and mosaic hops from the Northwest United States.

ABV: 4.5% | IBU: 30
