Big Time Success For Hop Noir, 12oz Bottles Soon
Peak Organic Brewing Company recently released Hop Noir – a black IPA in April. It was the 2nd release in the brewery’s 22oz bomber series. Noir was extremely successful, and now Peak is putting Hop Noir in 12oz bottles.
Hop Noir is as hoppy as it is bitter, boasting almost 100 IBUs. This all centennial hop, extremely aggressive imperial IPA is 100% organic from the ground up, showing that being organic doesn’t mean you can’t be bold.
Hop Noir is a delectable Black IPA, dripping with piney, aromatic Centennial hops. The malt base is dark and rich, anchored by organic black malt. This provides a strong foundation for the extravagant kettle hopping and dry-hopping that this beer experiences. Enjoy with a night-light.
