hopIQ found 10 beers with the same hoppy and citrusy character as Contender American IPA. Boxing Cat's assertive IPA — a punchy West Coast–style with citrus, tropical fruit and pine resin over a firm bitter backbone. Contender is Shanghai's benchmark craft IPA: the beer that shows China's craft scene can go toe-to-toe with the best American West Coast IPAs. Not for the faint-hearted, but hugely satisfying. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
Closest match: Susan — 95%. Same hop character and citrus notes, with a juicy edge Boxing Cat Brewery keeps quiet.
