🌍 United States · IPA · One of 16 IPAs in hopIQ

Square In A Circle In A Square is a West Coast-leaning IPA from Hop Butcher For The World, the celebrated Chicago craft outfit known for pushing hoppy boundaries. It pours a clear, burnished gold with a firm white head that settles to a persistent ring. The aroma opens with punchy citrus zest — orange peel and grapefruit — layered over resinous pine and a whisper of tropical fruit. On the palate, a clean, medium-bodied malt backbone provides just enough structure to support waves of bright hop bitterness. The Midwestern brewer's precision shows in the balanced yet assertive character, while the finish is dry, crisp, and satisfyingly bitter, leaving a lasting impression of citrus rind and fresh pine needles.

Serve & Enjoy

How to get the most out of Square In A Circle In A Square

Serve at 8–11°C
Refrigerate, then rest 2 min

Serve well-chilled. Session IPAs are at their best cold — the lower ABV means less warmth to balance the hops.

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.

Drink fresh. Session IPAs are brewed to be consumed young — the hops are at their best now.
