Fairbanks, AK HooDoo Brewing Co. is set to release their newest creation this week; the fruity, grassy and refreshing UK IPA will go on tap at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday April 4, 2014.
Brewed in the style of an English IPA from the 1800’s, HooDoo’s UK IPA is distinctly English. A simple malt bill of 100% English Maris Otter malted barley lends the beer a humble base that perfectly carries the distinct flavor and aroma of Golding hops. Goldings have been cultivated since the mid-1700s and are revered for their sweet, fruity contributions to English Ales.
Excellent with food, this springtime quencher pairs well with strong, spicy food like Thai curry. The boldness of the hops in this beer style contrast superbly with seafood. For cheeses, try it with a mild blue like gorgonzola or cambozola. The lovely floral and citrus aroma would also be great with a mellow cheddar, like Beecher’s Flagship.
Stats: ABV: 6.5% // IBU: 67// OG: 15.4
