Cheater Hops #18 ($18/16 oz 4-pk) – 6.8% ABV
IPA DDH with Vic Secret™, Hydra™, and Galaxy™

A handful of hop varieties pack such appealing aromatics that brewing with them is like cheating. We named our ever-changing series of IPAs “Cheater Hops” in their honor. We are honest brewers, that’s why we can admit when we cheat!

Vic Secret from Australia and Hydra from Michigan both bring aromatics that remind us of the tropical-intensity of Galaxy. Combining all three hops gives us aromatics of passionfruit and Fruit Stripe gum, with a depth of pine and citrus compared to a Galaxy single-hop.

Much and More ($20/16 oz 4-pk) – 8.2% ABV
DIPA DDH with Motueka™

New Zealand-grown Motueka is too often in the shadow of Nelson Sauvin™. We enjoyed Cheater Hops #14: Motueka so much that we double-ized the recipe to create Much and More! The result is loads of lime zest and tropical fruit on a creamy backdrop of oats and wheat!
