🌍 United States · Double IPA · One of 86 Double IPAs in hopIQ

Arid Grit is a Double IPA from Hop Butcher For The World, Chicago's relentlessly hop-forward craft brewery. Pouring a hazy, sun-bleached golden amber with a soft white head, this Midwestern bruiser greets the nose with a vivid wash of citrus peel, ripe stone fruit, and a dry, resinous pine character that lives up to its desert-dusted name. On the palate it hits with confident weight — juicy tropical fruit and tangerine zest riding a firm but balanced bitterness. The malt backbone stays lean and purposeful, keeping things dry rather than sweet. The finish is long, parched, and pleasantly gritty, with lingering hop oils that reward drinkers who appreciate bold, uncompromising American hop craft.

Tulip glass
Recommended for this style

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

Store in a cool, dark place. Check the best-before date on the label for guidance.
