All About American IPA

American IPA (India Pale Ale) is the flagship style of the modern craft beer movement—bold, hop-forward, and unapologetically flavorful, and that's the way we like it. Known for showcasing the vibrant character of American-grown hops, this style bursts with aromas and flavors of citrus, pine, tropical fruit, and sometimes floral or spicy notes, depending on the hop varieties used.

American IPAs typically range from 6% to 7.5% ABV, striking a balance between assertive hop bitterness and a sturdy malt backbone. That malt character, often toasty, lightly sweet, or caramel-tinged, provides just enough support for the hop showcase without stealing the spotlight.
