Three Taverns Passion

Tap to rate

Three Taverns' passion-fruit-forward American IPA — 7.5% ABV, tropical hop bill heavy on fruit-adjacent varieties, moderate bitterness. Same ABV as Ponce but a distinct tropical-vs-classic axis — where Ponce leans citric/piney, Passion leans passion-fruit-and-mango. The lineup's fruit-hop-forward statement without going hazy.

Tulip glass

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