hopIQ found 10 beers with the same resinous and dry character as Bear Knuckle IPA. A classic American IPA with 9+ pounds of hops per barrel — well above stylistic average. Aromatics are bright, resinous and bitter-threaded, with a bone-dry finish that hides the 7.7% ABV. Four-time winner of the New Mexico IPA Challenge (2016, 2017, 2019, 2021) — in the local craft canon this is now as inevitable as gravity. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
