Beer 101: Dry January
Another January, another pledge for an alcohol-free month. We have all been there. Yes, that includes those of us who work at breweries (in fact, maybe especially those of us who work at breweries!)

IPNA is pure NA satisfaction. A brewer-led labor of love utilizing all of our hops chops and over a year of R&D. Massively dry-hopped and delicious … like a clean, zesty bunch of hops smackin’ you in the face! Yes, in a good way.
Dank-ish pine-y grippiness from the massive dry-hop of our favorite Yakima Valley hops—Citra, Mosaic & CTZ (Columbus, Tomahawk & Zeus for the acronym-averse)—on a bed of English crystal malts for a smooth backbone & beautiful orange hue. A uniquely-full body and crazy-big hoppy aroma lends to IPNA’s satisfaction.
This Non-Alcoholic IPA uses the same ingredients found in our highly-balanced IPAs (hops, malt, yeast & water), and thus the same deliciousness, but brewed without the ceremonial fez & ancient incantations that normally take it over the edge. Leaving it just less than .5% alcohol.
Beer math on ABV (Alcohol By Volume) is pretty straightforward… the Higher the ABV, the more alcohol in the beer. No rocket science necessary.
Generally speaking, a high IBU beer will have a more bitter taste than a lower IBU beer.
The OG measures solids in the wort before fermentation to consistently arrive at the same alcohol content of a beer. Pretty neat, huh?
The hops present an almost tea-like herbal note in this non-alcoholic offering, showing off the range of what our hops can give us.
While aroma cannot itself be tart, your nose might try to tell you otherwise with strong lemon zest notes making your mouth water.
While this descriptor could come off strange, it is more reminiscent of a sauv blanc; with clean, fresh-cut hedge flavor, edging into bell pepper/pyrazine.
