hopIQ found 10 beers with the same resinous and piney character as Dead Ringer IPA. A throwback West Coast IPA hopped entirely with the Yakima Chief experimental variety HBC638, added across several kettle additions. The malt bill stays classic and pale, leaving the hops the whole stage. Pine and resin lead, with citrus peel and stone fruit behind them, and the bitterness is assertive but layered rather than flat. The finish is dry and firmly bitter. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
