Somewhere between the world we know and the ones we don’t lies the Space Reaper. Its cosmic might shines bright through the multiverse. This Double IPA may not unlock all the secrets of this universe, but it will show you what lies beyond the palate, with a generous reaping of mosaic hops, sure to take you on the ride of your afterlife. Brewed to welcome the summer solstice, Space Reaper incorporates the Mosaic hop – one of the most sought-after aroma hops out there – with Canadian 2-row, CaraPils, C-60 and Wheat malts, and dextrose.
Available starting in August 2018 in 12oz cans (DC only), 16oz cans & draft.
Tasting Notes
There’s enough of a malt backbone to support the immense hop presence that this beer is known for. The brew is modeled off a traditional-hop forward “West Coast Style” Double IPA. It hits all the notes that one would expect from a huge DIPA with a complex aromatic array of mango, citrus, berry and tropical fruit with an agreeable herbal and light cedar note to round it out. First sip communicates a large, refreshing dose of hop bitterness followed up by a light, malty, sticky, resinous, cedar-like finish with hints of stone fruit and Guava.
