Basqueland / Garage Beer Co Fat Pocket

This collaborative Double IPA pours with a thick, hazy character that signals its intense juiciness. A heavy dry-hop regimen featuring Citra, Nelson Sauvin, and Simcoe creates a powerful aromatic bouquet of ripe pineapple, crushed white grapes, and zesty passion fruit. Golden stone fruits and bright citrus notes lead the palate, supported by a clean, soft malt backbone that stays out of the way of the hop profile. Despite its 8% strength, the beer maintains a smooth, approachable bitterness that allows the vibrant oils to shine. It is a medium-full bodied experience that balances the intensity of New World hops with a lush, tropical finish.
