IPA has become one of our favorite styles and we all love hops. As we worked on our recipes over the years we have made some good ones although we knew we wanted something different.  A beer with a hop profile that could be single hopped, pairs well with the single variety Copeland Malt and handle the impacts of barrel aging. We tossed our old recipes out the window after working with an Heirloom variety of hop called Gargoyle that was resurrected by our local hop grower in Lake County. The grain bill has some crystal malt although is mainly single malt Copeland variety. We bumped the bitterness up and hit the wort hard (w / hops) at cooling / knockout. After primary the beer was aged in 3rd use Cabernet Barrels for 1 to 2 months. This style of IPA is more old world with spice tones dominating rather than the fruitier styles more commonly found.
