Let’s address the elephant in the room … things have been a little boring lately. January is usually a pretty slow time for new beer releases, and shipping delays due to winter storms and frigid temperatures only frustrated matters.
All that is about to change! We looked into our crystal balls and the next few weeks are looking super exciting, with new releases from Equilibrium, Two Tides, Pipeworks, and Other Half on the horizon. This week ain’t shabby either - we’re most excited about four fancy hazy IPAs from the world-class brewery Hop Butcher, and we can’t wait to tell you all about them!
Hop Butcher Dense Light $19.99/4pk
Clocking in at 7.5% and hopped with Mosaic, Motueka & Galaxy, Dense Light is, simply put, a fantastic Double IPA with a fabulous hop profile. Expect a glorious medley of juicy melon, candied lime, and ripe stone fruit with a pleasantly bitter aftertaste.
Hop Butcher Green Fly $19.99/4pk
Green Fly features another cool hop combo: Waimea, a New Zealand hop known for big tropical citrus flavors, and Simcoe, which packs intense stone fruit and pine notes. The result? A big, lip-smacking DIPA loaded with flavors of candied mango, juicy tangerine, and a hint of dank pine resin.
Hop Butcher Lord Octopus $19.99/4pk
Every now and then, a single-hopped Mosaic IPA comes along and reminds us why that hop changed the IPA game. Mosaic is so named because of the tapestry of nuanced fruit flavors it imparts. Lord Octopus is a vivid display of Mosaic’s complexity: ripe berry, tropical citrus, a slightly sweet hint of cotton candy swirl through the pillowy soft canvas of each sip.
Hop Butcher Riwakamania VIII $19.99/4pk
This latest addition to the Riwakamania series pairs Motueka with its namesake Riwaka hop. Motueka is known for refreshing, zesty flavors - think fresh tropical lime. Riwaka is a little more aggressive and is famously an exceptional hop for big, hazy IPAs. In combination, they complement each other and render Riwakamania VIII a quaffable IPA with notes of sweet lime, lemon zest, and pink grapefruit.
Hop Butcher IPA Mixed Pack $19.99/4pk
