The thirteenth entry in our exploratory Double IPA series, Society & Solitude #13 features HBC 586, Simcoe, and Strata® hops. Developed by the Hop Breeding Co. (a joint venture between John I. Haas and Yakima Chief Ranches), HBC 586 is perhaps our favorite HBC varietal in the last decade. Strata®—a variety developed by Indie Hops via Oregon State’s Aroma Hop Breeding Program—provides a unique complexity of aromas that buttresses the qualities we enjoy most with our hand-selected Simcoe® hops.

Draught @ Fools Gold, Manhattan NYC (Aug 2025). Hazy dark yellow-orange like peach juice, large creamy beige head, coriander/mint-citrus aroma, adequate carbonation, medium bitter unripe mango-coriander-citrus taste, smooth body, long finish. Great flavors!

On tap @As Is. Co-worker had three of these. Hazy, sticky, deep orange honey-colored tulip pour. Looks good. Earthy, boozy, bitter orange nose. Smells good. Sweet onion, earthy pine, lots of pithy & numbing rind, light acid. Somewhat sweet, thick slurry. Okay but not my favorite. I don't like most hazies & I think I don't like Strata.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from the brewery. Pours unclear orange-gold with a foamy, off-white head. Moderately sweet with big dank character, a little pee, some mango, tangerine, pine, pale bread, melon, orange rind. Medium to full bodied with massaging carbonation. Lightly warming finish, ample dank tropical fruits, decent bitter rind and pine. Mighty tasty.

8oz pour at Proletariat is a murky orange with a ring of white head. Clingy. I literally said boom when I smelled it. Big orange and citrus peel, some melon and peach. Punchy and fruity. Flavor is zippy citrus zest and orange and grass, oats come in now along with some faint vanilla, peach sorbet is clear. Finishes just barely off dry, medium bodied and zippy.

Can thanks to William. Pours a cloudy copper gold with medium white head that lasts. The aroma is dank and tropical fruit. Slick body, pine, mango, melon, grapefruit, light resin finish, very nice.

On tap at Monk’s Cafe in Philadelphia. Hazy orange gold pour. Creamy beige head is minimal. Wonderful nose of mango and stone fruit. Flavor is biscuit malt and ripe stone fruit. Earthy yeast mixes with tropical fruits. Some warming alcohol in middle. Dank citrus and resin on backend. This brew is a roller coaster of flavors. Quite tasty.

Armsby draught, 3/3/23. Lightly-to-moderately hazy, bright lemon-brass-golden. Large, well-retained, thick, white head. Juicy with lime, sour gummies, lemon and light stone fruit. Deep and subtle, seems like it will open up well. Basic white bread-like malt balances the low acidity and there is ample mineral-like house character from yeast/water. Soft, very juicy with petrol-accented earth and heavy mineral. Peach, kumquat, lime, honey...it's pretty wacky. Light to moderate bitterness, lots of deep malt texture, good attenuation and clean with no resin or booze.

Can from HF. It pours hay golden - yellow with a frothy white head. The aroma is fresh and tropical, peach, mango, nectarine, pineapple, touch of gummy candy, splash of fanta, sweet, juicy, peach cobbler, five alive fruit juice and just a touch of pine. The taste is dry and firm upfront, bitter - sweet character, restrained bitterness lingers throughout, fresh and juicy, pithy, zesty, bitter peel, grapefruit, pomelo, tropical fruits, pineapple, peachy, touch green, weedy, pine, some alcohol buzz and a touch of peppery spice with a. Dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Great depth of fruitiness. Well judged and quaffable. Fun hop juice.
