A few months ago we brewed a beer with Hop Butcher at their location in Chicago. We called it Bride of Pierogi, because pierogi is great (and so is the Chucky film franchise). There is no food more versatile or more satisfying than Pierogi. It’s stuff in dough. Pure magic. And so is Fresh Pierogi. Except we swapped the dough for pilsner malt and white wheat, and swapped the potato for Fresh Hops. We poured 600 pounds of Fresh Strata Hops into this Hazy Double IPA.
Pairs best with fresh pierogi, obviously.
Hops: Fresh Strata, Krush, Simcoe, Krush Cryo, Simcoe Cryo, Simcoe Dynaboost, Citra CO2 Extract
Malts: Rahr Pils, Linc White Wheat, Flaked Wheat, Acidulated

Oaty, sweetish, some weedy notes, pale malt, moderate bitterness, but it works.

On tap at Bottleworks, pours a cloudy yellow with a small white head. Aroma has soft, doughy malt, giving way to fresh leafy hops, grass, and light pine. Flavour is clean, with lots of leafy, piney hops, doughy malt, and grassiness. Clean, well-expressed, way above the hazy standard.

On tap at Bottleworks. Pours opaque yellow with a white head. Crisp pine, dank, fresh grass on the nose. Flavour has super dank oils, some bright pine, fresh grass, gentle citrus. Fantastic hazy.
