This morning we bring you your first peek at a new Hop Hero IPA Series beer coming to bottles from Bridgeport Brewing in Portland, OR. This is Rosé IPA and it is brewed with Hibiscus as well as Mosaic hops to mimic the classic Rosé wine. The beer will hit 5%-AbV and it will be packaged in 12oz and 22oz bottles as well as 12oz cans). Stay tuned for release info.
This from Bridgeport:
It’s June and we’re celebrating the official kick off to summer with our new Rosé IPA! We start this beer with our Pale Ale malt and little honey malt to accentuate the slightly sweet background. This is a fun session beer that is a lower alcohol beer “hopped” in our hopjack with hibiscus for a unique floral, citrus flavor and aroma punctuated by a gorgeous subtle pink hue. We then finish the beer with a solid dose of Mosaic, Citra, and Meridian dry hops at the end of fermentation to give it a slightly sweet fruity finish.
This is the beer that’s going to rock the summer like a Top 40 song. We can’t wait to share it with you! Rosé IPA is currently available in the brewpub, and at fine major retailers around Portland.
