Chinook Single Hop IPA

In stock and online

Hermitage Brewing Single Hop Chinook IPA...$5.99
We are very excited about the latest installment in our Single Hop IPA series, made with delicious Chinook hops. Chinook has been a staple hop in west coast style IPAs since the development of the style. At about 13% alpha acid, Chinook imparts a solid bitterness, but also comes packing lots of beautiful aromas. Known for its distinctive grapefruit character, Chinook hops also impart notes of resinous pine and a slight “cattiness”, similar to but not as pronounced as you would find in the Simcoe variety. The finished beer is a well-rounded west coast style IPA bursting with all of the wonderful flavors that we generally use a blend of flowers to try to produce. The wonderful flavors and aromas develop and change as your palate adjusts to the copper-colored brew, and at about 7% ABV, it’s drinkable enough to have a few. Cheers. ~Head Brewer Greg Filippi
