This sub style of IPA aims to honor the brewing craft and the tradition of hoppy beers while embracing new hop varieties and modern taste sensibilities.
We set out to make a hoppy beer that is juicy, low in bitterness, soft on the pallet and brimming with tropical and citrus aromas from the finest and most sought after hops from around the world.
This means we add some high protein content malt to allow for a stable suspension of hop oils in the finished product.
Why do we call it a Southeast PA IPA? Because we believe SEPA to be an absolutely world class beer region with a brewing history and culture unparalleled in North America.
This doesn’t mean we won’t continue to make beers with the unmalted barley, oats, fruit or other wacky things in it but we always want to offer the choice of simple, honest and delicious hoppy beers made in a simple and honest way.
In simple terms:
An aromatic, low bitterness IPA made only with malted barley, malted wheat, hops, water and yeast.
