Well, the results are in. This beer is a hit. Santa Cruz loves its HOPS almost as much as it loves organic strawberries. This India Pale is an aromatic beer that packs a punch. A whopping 7% alcohol content, drink a pint of this elyxir and you will be feeling a 'hoppy' buzz. Our Head Brewer, Chad Brill favors a heavily hopped beer and yet this India Pale Ale is not as hoppy as you might expect. Juggling the availability of organic hops and alpha contents, Chad focuses on creating a subtle balance of malt and hops without over stimulating your palate. You will find this to be a highly drinkable India Pale Ale; the perfect thirst quenching ale.
