hopIQ found 10 beers with the same dry and hoppy character as St-Ambroise Brut IPA. Fermented dry to the point of austerity: almost no residual sugar is left, so the beer closes bone-dry with a fine, wine-like sparkle. Pale straw and clear, with a thin body that leaves the hops sitting on top — Cascade, Citra, Amarillo, Mosaic and El Dorado give white grape, lemon and a light tropical lift. Bitterness is moderate and clipped, and the finish is short and brisk, nearer a dry sparkling wine than a usual IPA. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
