Hop Riot IPA is our flagship beer. Brewed in the American IPA style with a definitive "Left Coast" attitude. We brew our IPA with an aggressive bitterning level which is complimented and balanced by a defined malt backbone. Our final signature is the dry hop step where fresh hops are immersed in the finished beer to provide the floral and citrus aromas of our IPA, a Hop Riot indeed.

Bottle at the De Molen second Tuesday tasting, April 2013. Poured a clear medium amber with a thin white head. The aroma is floral and hoppy, leading to a strong bitter flavour, with lots of malt and bitterness on the palate. There is some spice, but its well controlled. Some American IPA’s are a little over the top at times, but this is very drinkable.
