Trout Hop Black IPA is a spicy and bold American-Style India Black Ale, with notes of fresh pine needles and spruce tips. Brewed with Idaho 2-Row Brewers’ Malt and German specialty malts, this ale has a deep rich color and roasted finish but is not as thick as some malty brews. Kettle hopped and dry hopped with Pacific Northwest hops, the resulting bitterness is bold and intense, the aroma piney and zesty. The full body and dry finish create a refreshing winter ale, perfect for any crisp afternoon or cool evening.
Original Gravity (Plato): 18° • International Bitterness Units: 117
Alcohol by Volume: 8.5% • Lovibond: 32°
2014 Cellar Reserve Series
Lazy Marmot Maibock is our first cellar reserve of 2014. We used Idaho 2-Row Pale along with German Vienna and CaraHell malts for a clean, slightly sweet flavor, then subtly spiced the brew with German Tradition hops. We fermented with lager yeast from a monastery brewery near Munich, and allowed it to ferment and condition for more than two months for a smooth yet crisp character. Try Lazy Marmot Maibock as an aperitif to stimulate the taste buds, or with any flavorful fish, such as trout or salmon.
