Tropical Hopslam
A double IPA packed with notes of pineapple, mango and passionfruit, which Bell's presents as a juicy twist on its Hopslam. At 9% ABV it sits just below the 10% of the original, which Bell's first brewed about twenty years ago with Pacific Northwest hops. It carries the Hopslam name of the Kalamazoo, Michigan brewery.
