This summer, we wanted to enjoy a Cold IPA, so we created one that lets the hops from Indie Hops truly shine.
Refreshing, dry, and slightly bitter, this beer combines the best of both worlds: lager yeast and IPA hops like Luminosa and Strata, along with Lorien, which adds a distinctly lager profile, making it enjoyable to the last drop. As soon as you bring it to your mouth, you’ll notice the blend of citrus aromas, with mandarin standing out alongside notes of tropical fruits, candy, and flowers. A true delight.

Basqueland does a lot of IPAs. A Lot. They classify them as a variety of styles, WCIPA, NEIPA, etc. They are ALWAYS NEIPAs. Except this. They finally came through with an IPA that is not hazy, has hope flavors, has some bitterness, and is actually a joy to drink. Clear golden with the slightest bit of cloudiness. Citrus, pine and grass in the aroma. A solid bitterness in the finish that is actual hop bitterness. Lingers. Dry. This is a great beer. More of this in my glass, please.
