Sierra Nevada Spring Seasonal Brut IPA Extra Dry IPA

Sierra Nevada Brut IPA Extra Dry IPA. Alc. 6.2 % by Vol. Brewed at Sierra Nevada Brewing Co., Chico, CA & North Mills, NC.

Crystal clear, bright golden, slim ivory head.

In the nose: Clean, dry, slightly fruity, moderate bitterness. Touch of sweet.

In the mouth: Flash of fruit, splash of citrus, traces of tropical. Clean, crisp, drinkable. Just the briefest blaze of bitter. I could go for more.

This is our Brut IPA, a new take on IPA brewed for a bone dry champagne-style finish. Late hop additions give the beer balanced bitterness and a bright pop of citrus flavor. It’s as intriguing as it is drinkable.
