Drake's 7×70 A.K.A. Foraging Racoon IPA
7.0% India Pale Ale
No question, West Coast brewers have quietly become the foremost hoppy brewing experts. For years we have obsessed on finding new ways to showcase the region's hops in ways that go far beyond the bitterness. By simplifying malt bills, focusing on aroma amplifying late-addition hopping, and experimenting with new hop varieties out of Yakima, we have discovered and mastered new paths for experiencing our favorite flower, the hop. After over 25 years of brewing with the best hops in the world, Drake's brewers have created their 7×70 IPA, a modern take on the India Pale Ale with a lighter, clean grist bill of only 2-row and a touch pale toasted oats layered with enticing hop aromas of citrus and melon, flavors of grapefruit & pine, and a firm, crisp hop bitterness that satisfies with palate-wrecking. It's complex, masterful, and simply delicious.
