Troegs Scratch # 133 - India Pale Lager Coming Tomorrow

image
From Troegs:

NEW SCRATCH BEER TO BE RELEASED TOMORROW! Scratch #133 represents our first-ever India Pale Lager, a new hybrid style combining lager yeast and cold fermentation with an assertive hop bill. We begin with a Helles Lager base using our house lager yeast strain, then add copious amount of Nugget hops to provide a green, leafy bitterness. We then dry hopped twice – first with Summer hops, a new hybrid variety from New Zealand, and then with El Dorado, an extremely versatile and complex hop. The result is a Scratch Beer that combines the best of both worlds and poses the question: “Do you want more hops in your lager?” Answer: “Daaaaaamn right!” Availability: draft and growler fills only. ABV is 6.8% and IBU is 61.

UPDATE:  Due to the impending snow, Troegs will be closed tomorrow (2/13). I suspect the release will be delayed until Fri.
