NA Apocalypse

Tap to rate

The alcohol-free sibling of the brewery's flagship IPA from Bend, Oregon, listed as a non-alcoholic HopBurst: it delivers the signature punch of pine, citrus and tropical notes that define the original, just without the buzz. Enjoy it at the end of the day or the start of a new one. At 0.5% ABV and 25 IBU, the hops stay in front.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and direct, with citrus leading into a well-structured mid-palate where tropical fruit and piney hop bitterness interweave. The 25 IBU registers clearly without harshness, grounding the sweeter fruit notes and providing a dry, refreshing quality throughout. Light body and minimal residual sweetness keep the palate clean and hop-focused.

Tulip glass

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
