Hop Popper

Description

Hop Popper is a captivating Brut IPA from the talented brewers at Hallertau Brewbar & Restaurant. This 7.1% ABV offering takes the IPA style to new heights, showcasing the vibrant hop flavors in a unique and refreshing way. Brut IPAs, also known as "hop champagne," have gained popularity for their ability to highlight the aromatic and flavor-packed qualities of hops. Hallertau's Hop Popper exemplifies this style, with a simple pilsner malt grain bill that allows the hops to shine. The beer is fermented bone-dry using champagne yeast, resulting in a thin, crisp mouthfeel and a bone-dry finish. The hop selection for Hop Popper is a delightful blend, featuring German-grown hops, including the newer Amarillo variety, as well as the New Zealand-grown Motueka. This combination creates a vibrant and complex hop profile, with notes of citrus, tropical fruit, and a subtle herbal character. Compared to the hazy, murky IPAs that have dominated the craft beer scene, Hop Popper stands out with its crystal-clear appearance, allowing the hop flavors to truly pop. This beer is designed to deliver maximum hop impact, making it a must-try for hop enthusiasts and IPA connoisseurs alike.
