To pay homage to the original hop headed hero of Short’s Brewing Company, this beer was made as a 30th birthday gift for Joe Short. A double IPA, this beast employs a sizable malt bill, but it’s the ridiculous amounts of hops added to the boil every 4 minutes, for 120 minutes, that showcases this beer. A fruity, floral, piney intensity of hops penetrates through the caramelized malt profile. This well balanced, full bodied brew finishes bitter with a punch of fresh citrus from the addition of lemon and orange zest post fermentation. This beer is a burley double IPA with enormous amounts of hops which helps to support the healthy malt profile. A piney, citrusy intensity of hop protrudes through the caramelized malt profile and is finished with a punch of fresh citrus compliments of fresh lemon and orange zest added after fermentation. Enjoy with caution.
