Trooper West Coast IPA
Smells as if someone cracked open a bag of fresh hops and left it open, then rolls in waves of grapefruit, resin and unmistakable dankness, full-bodied with a confident bitterness. Built around Krush hops, this 6.6 % West Coast IPA was created with Iron Maiden and its Trooper Beer brand, and is brewed for loud nights.
