In 1777, some former lands of Dr. Thomas Walker were laid out into lots along Main and Water streets. On Main Street, numerous hotels and small lodges were established to house the itinerant men who traveled along the Great Road. Hidden down the hill in between Main and Water was a small sidestreet named Troopers Alley. Stepping out the back doors from those Main Street hotels into the Alley, men could find dens of “evil fame,” gambling, and strong ale. Like those establishments, the intense hop bill of this American-style IPA will tempt you with citrus aroma and bitterness. A discrete malt bill of 2-row Pale Malt forms the backbone and a blend of Crystal/Caramel 40 is added for slight sweetness and color to draw you in to the varied hop experience. Simcoe and Columbus hops added throughout the boil provide an alluring bitterness. An enticing blend of Columbus, Amarillo, Simcoe, Cascade, and Centennial balances the bitterness with a fragrant aroma and pleasing finish. 135 IBUs, 9 SRM, 5.9% ABV American pale, Crystal and Caramel 40 malts. Columbus, Amarillo, Simcoe, Cascade, and Centennial hops.

    Stellar IPA on tap @ Knoxville BrewFest, hidden gem! Clear light amber pour with a near perfect white head and lacing. BIG citrus hops aroma - grapefruits, some orange, with a touch of peaches, then a nice malt backbone. Taste does not disappoint after that aroma - citrus hops bitter, grapefruits, sweet oranges, then slight peach again, with a great linger and nice offset of sweet caramel-type maltiness. Very very good IPA from this tiny upstart brewery. Well travel to get my growlers filled there - very tasty and maybe the best kept secret beer of the festival.
