Dougall’s Single Hop Simcoe

This sessionable take on the American IPA showcases the multifaceted Simcoe hop against a lean, modern grist. The aroma is dominated by Simcoe's signature aromatic blend of resinous pine, bright grapefruit, and tropical passionfruit. A base of Maris Otter and Extra Pale malts provides a delicate toasted-biscuit sweetness, while the addition of oats contributes a surprising velvet-like smoothness to the otherwise light frame. Despite the low alcohol content, it delivers a punchy bitterness and a clean, dry finish that emphasizes hop oils over malt weight. It is a vibrant, aromatic ale designed for high drinkability without sacrificing characteristic hop intensity.
