Green Blaze IPA

Tap to rate

Pine, tropical fruit and resin hop notes lead this American IPA, carried by a light, biscuity malt backbone. It is pale orange at 6.5% ABV and 60 IBU. The name pairs green, for environmental responsibility, outdoor adventure and hoppy beers, with blaze, the mark painted on a tree to show the trail. Back as a limited IPA mix-pack exclusive.

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