Wylie Brewery Down the Barrel

This collaboration between Wylie Brewery and Naparbier presents a quintessential American IPA profile focused on intense hop saturation. The sensory journey begins with an assertive bouquet of citrus, tropical fruit, and resinous pine, typical of New World hop varieties. On the palate, a clean, grainy malt foundation allows the high bitterness to shine, showcasing layers of grapefruit zest and floral notes. The fermentation remains neutral and professional, ensuring the hop character is the undisputed star. Finishing dry with a crisp, lingering bitterness, it embodies a bright and refreshing interpretation of the style's hop-forward ethos, providing a complex aromatic experience.
