Recommended Pairing
Imperial/Double IPA
Featuring high hop bitterness, flavor, and aroma, the hop character is fresh and evident. Alcohol content is high and noted by a full body. The best examples of this beer style are intended to place fresh hop flavor and character as the focal point. Pair with bone-in pork chops, miso salmon, rich cheeses, and carrot cake. Best served at 50-55 degrees in a goblet or tulip glass.
