Bulldog
Citrus, pine and tropical fruit in a dark yellow, slightly hazy American IPA with a medium bitter body at 35 IBU. Cascade, Centennial, Citra and Mosaic are the hops; barley malt, wheat malt and flaked oats the grain bill. Like the other early core beers, it is named after a type of pipe. Bronze at the 2020 Dutch Beer Challenge.

What is a American IPA?
IPAs are hop-forward ales with 5.5–7.5% ABV and IBU 40–70+. Bold hop aroma — citrus, tropical, resinous — with firm bitterness and a dry, clean finish.
