Hop Scare Returns

Now going by the name, Hop Scare II, this great IPA that was last seen in the fall has returned to the taps at Great Waters!

It’s baaaaack! This is a midwestern IPA. That means that the fine flavor of barley is balanced with the snappy floral and citrusy flavor and aroma of three hop varieties. While plenty hoppy, this IPA is more than just hop juice. Let’s hope for plenty more sequels.
O.G. 14.6P, 70 IBU, 6.2% ABV
