Hoppin’ Frog Euro Collab #2, Friday

The second beer in a series of collaboration brews by Hoppin’ Frog (Akron, OH) is Natasha RÃ¸cks America and it arrives this Friday. Founder Fred Karm recently did a beer run through Europe and the 2nd of the 3 brewed abroad is Natasha. A collaboration with FanÃ¸ Bryghus (FanÃ¸, Denmark).

NATASHA ROCKS AMERICA In a collaboration with Fano Brewery on Fano Island in Denmark, we created an Imperial Stout recipe to satisfy our own deepest desires. Brewing it on this picturesque summertime vacation island is how Natasha started, and of course we couldn’t wait to brew it at Hoppin’ Frog! The result is Natasha Rocks America — a rich, hoppy Imperial Stout with the deep-roasted, smooth flavor of Chocolate Rye malt. And, Natasha is generously dry-hopped with the perfect mix of select American hops, adding a great hop character to this super-tasty Imperial Stout collaboration brew.

Style: Stout (w/ Rye)
Availability: 22 oz bombers
Arrival: 11/2/12

7.5% ABV
