Lancaster Hop Hog IPAStyle: Indian Pale Ale
ABV: 7.9%
Active Beer
12oz Bottle Poured Into A Sam Adams Perfect Pint
Our hoppiest beer to date! This formidable India Pale Ale has a hop aroma that demands attention. The bold, citrus hop flavor is balanced by a dry malt character that makes this refreshing ale a true classic.

Horrible Drink ability- It Was A Chore To Finish This Beer
"Pass Up'' Beer
A Bit Acidic On The Finish
Sweet Beer With Almost No Bitter Hop Influence
If You Are A Bitter Hop Addicted IPAer, Stay Away From This Beer, Because It Falls Short Of The Ad Copy
More Of A Vegetable Finish
The taste is very sweet upfront, so sweet I wasn't expecting it. Almost no bitterness at all in the middle or finish. It just had a steady stream of a lurking faint bitterness throughout. All that the taste acquires is a dry earthy malt flavor with a buttery element and a blunted brief mediocre hop finish that annoys you as you drink. This is the least bitter IPA I have ever drank. There are more Pale Ales out there with more of a bitter punch than this one. This beer is more about appearance than it's flavor.
