Beers similar to Nelson Sauvin Red IPA

MicroBrasserie Charlevoix

Red IPA·Canada·5.5% ABV·One of 24 Red IPAs in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Nelson Sauvin Red IPA's bitter and fruity character. A red IPA hopped with Nelson Sauvin, whose white-wine and gooseberry character plays against a caramel malt base. Caramel and bread crust arrive first, followed by white fruit, citrus and a green-pepper bite from the spicing. The darker malt lends more weight than the strength suggests, and a firm bitterness pulls the finish back dry. Brewed all year.
