Description

Big RIPA: A Hop-Forward IPA Delight Crafted by the skilled brewers at Renaissance Brewing, the Big RIPA is a captivating IPA that showcases the vibrant flavors of New Zealand hop varieties. This brew pours a stunning brownish-red hue, with deep ruby highlights that catch the light beautifully. The beer's malt backbone, featuring a high proportion of Munich and red malts, provides a solid foundation to support the bold hop character. The nose is a delightful blend of citrus and tropical fruit aromas, with subtle caramel notes from the malts. On the palate, the Big RIPA delivers an emphatically hoppy experience, with a coating of resinous hop flavors that dance across the tongue. The dominant hop notes of citrus, tropical fruit, and pine are complemented by a hint of malt sweetness, creating a harmonious balance. Brewed for the New Zealand IPA Challenge, this beer is a must-try for hop enthusiasts seeking a bold and flavorful IPA experience.
