Tonight, Nebraska Brewing releases another round of Barrel Aged Hop God.  

...began with our Hop God Belgian-Style IPA which was then enhanced by a 6 month maturation in French Oak Chardonnay Barrels.This version of Hop God is a fascinating, big, bold Belgian-style Tripel hopped in very high amounts to concentrate citrus, grapefruit and floral aromatics in the nose.The addition of Chardonnay barrel aging adds further dimension and oak tannins to an already wonderfully complex Ale.We know of nothing that compares. Enjoy!

Sam Adams Grumpy Monk

Sam Adams Grumpy MonkSam Adams is diversifying their beer lineup and styles.  The trend continues with Grumpy Monk.  Grumpy is a Belgian IPA.

The long held brewing traditions of Belgian monks aren’t meant to be broken. Yet, to the monk’s dismay, the distinctive character of Belgian yeast with its spicy clove and fruit notes can be reimagined when combined with the brazen hop character of an IPA. These hops impart a citrusy, piney, and earthy flavor that’s balanced by a roasted malt sweetness for a complex and playful brew. 

Style: Belgian IPA
Availability: 12oz bottles, Draft
Arrival: TBA

5.7% ABV

Deschutes Chainbreaker White IPA Bottles

Deschutes Chainbreaker White IPADeschutes Chainbreaker White IPA looks destined for bottles.   Chainbreaker resembles a recent collaboration with Deschutes and Boulevard Brewing “Conflux.”   A stylistic crossover, Chainbreaker is a Belgian style white IPA.

With this feisty white IPA, Deschutes white-knuckles again from the well-worn path.  Chainbreaker fuses smooth wheat and spice low notes with hop highs.   Proof, at last, that crisp and refreshing can still be a thrilling ride.  

Style: Belgian IPA
Availability: 12oz bottles, Draft.
Arrival In Bottles: TBA

Ommegang One Of The Gang Debuts Thursday

Ommegang One Of The GangOmmegang’s recent collaboration with The Blue Tusk debuts this Thursday.  One-Of-The-Gang is big time hoppy Belgian IPA.

One.Of.The.Gang is a “hoppy Belgian-style tripel,” says the Tusk’s Mike Yorton, who created the brew with Ommegang’s director of beer development, Jason Parrish. It’s a limited-edition brew made exclusively for The Blue Tusk.

It’s likely the hoppiest beer Ommegang has ever produced (though probably not at the hop limit for the Tusk crowd).

Style: Belgian IPA
Availability: Draft Only
Arrival: 12/15/11

8.6% ABV
