In this episode Bob and I finally reach the IPA category. We begin this category with the American IPA. Characterized by floral, fruity, citrus-like, piney or resinous American-variety hop character, the IPA beer style is all about hop flavor, aroma and bitterness. This has been the most-entered category at the Great American Beer Festival for more than a decade, and is the top-selling craft beer style in supermarkets and liquor stores across the U.S.

 

Examples of this style:

1.     Bell’s – Two Hearted

2.     Dogfish Head – 60 Minute IPA

3.     Sierra Nevada – Torpedo Extra IPA

 

ABV: 5.5-7.5%

IBUs: 40-70

Color: 6-14

Serving Temp: 45-55F
