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

Loophole Technicality is a Double IPA from Hop Butcher For The World, the Chicago-based hop-forward specialists who have built a devoted Midwestern following. It pours a hazy, golden-amber with a soft, pillowy white head that lingers invitingly. The aroma bursts with juicy tropical fruit — ripe mango, passionfruit, and citrus zest — underscored by a light resinous pine backbone. On the palate, it delivers a lush, medium-full body with waves of stone fruit, tangerine, and a subtle doughy sweetness that keeps things smooth and approachable. Bitterness is present but restrained, allowing the hop character to take center stage. The finish is clean, moderately dry, and refreshingly long, leaving a pleasant tropical warmth.

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.
