A session version of our flagship brand Hopsecutioner aged on Mizuno bat chips. Bright copper in color with grapefruit, citrus and papaya aromatics plus a subtle oak character. A light, crackery malt sweetness brings balance to a pleasant hop bite, while light bodied effervescence and grapefruit pith dryness make for the perfect warm-weather session brew. Chopsecutioner – it’s not Hopsecutioner, but it’s in the Ballpark!

On tap at Terrapin, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of wood, hop resins and stone fruits. Flavour is along the same lines, with subdued wood and hop resins. Quite dry, with a pithy, citrusy finish. Strange one - not quite sure what they were going for.

About as good as the Braves' last three seasons, but not quite. Faded IPA notes on top of cracker malts and flat bitterness, making the beer come across more stale than wood-aged. Cereal sweetness lurks underneath the modest citrus and pine, but everything's muted and weak, while the white bread yeast flourish on the finish helps nothing. Maybe suitable on a ninety-degree day at the ballpark and it's all the beer guy has left in his sack, but otherwise a pop-up bunt. (Baseball puns!)
