Unleashing Hopworks Brewery’s Insatiable Fresh Hop IPA: A Seasonal Delight

Are you ready to embark on a hoppy adventure? Look no further than the glorious Hopworks Brewery’s Insatiable Fresh Hop IPA. This seasonal West Coast IPA is more than just a beer. It’s a fresh hop masterpiece that’s itching for your taste buds to give it a whirl!

Freshness at Its Finest

Let’s talk about what makes this beer tick. The secret weapon? Fresh Centennial hops from Goschie Farms, located only 40 miles away from the brewery. That’s right, 40 miles! These hops are picked at peak freshness and sprinted straight to the brew kettle. Talk about a speedy hop delivery! This quick turnaround captures all those volatile aromas that make fresh hop IPAs so irresistible.

Flavor Profile: A Symphony of Tastes

What can you expect when you crack open a can of Insatiable Fresh Hop IPA? Hold onto your taste buds because this beer is ready to tango!

• Hoppy Goodness
  The prominent notes of lemon, pine, and citrus hit you like a refreshing wave of flavor. Also, keep your eyes peeled (or taste buds alert!) for hints of grapefruit, navel orange, and even some floral elements. It’s like a garden party in your mouth!

• Well-Balanced Malt
  Unlike some beers that drown you in sweetness, Insatiable boasts a clean, dry malt profile. This makes it the perfect dance partner for the intense hop character. The bitterness is moderate, so you won’t feel like you’ve been hit by a train. Instead, you’ll experience a harmonious blend of flavors that won’t overpower your palate.

Appearance: A Visual Treat

Now, let’s talk visuals! This beauty pours a slightly hazy amber color with a frothy white head that screams, “I’m here to party!” Its appearance might tempt you to take a sip before you even raise the can to your lips.

Perfect Pairings: Food, Meet Your Hoppy Match

We know beer is fantastic on its own, but why not elevate the experience? The Hopworks Brewery’s Insatiable Fresh Hop IPA pairs like a dream with various bold and rich dishes. Let’s break it down:

Spice It Up

Love spicy food? This IPA is your best friend! The bitterness acts as a palate cleanser, letting you savor the heat in spicy dishes. Ask our deli divas and dons what’s on the menu for simple grab and go dinners!

• Fish Tacos: The citrusy notes complement the flavors of fish tacos, especially with some fresh salsa. Yum!
• Thai Green Curry: The herbal and citrusy hops tie in beautifully with the coriander and lemongrass in curry.
• Spicy Chicken Wings: The beer’s bitterness matches the bold flavors of your favorite wings. What a classic combo!

Grilled Goodness

• Burgers: The bold hop flavors neatly pair with a juicy burger’s fat and saltiness. Who can say no to that?
• Grilled Meats: The resinous and citrusy notes cut through the smoke and char of grilled steaks, chicken, or BBQ ribs.
• Pizza: Especially cheesy ones! The IPA’s bitterness balances the fat and grease, making each bite tastier.

The Cheese Factor

You didn’t think we’d skip cheese, did you? Our cheesemongers can help you pair this IPA with a variety of rich cheeses, and you’ll wonder how you ever lived without this combo. Think sharp cheddars and creamy bries. Absolute bliss!

Limited Release: Get It While You Can!

Here’s the catch: Hopworks Brewery’s Insatiable Fresh Hop IPA is a limited-release seasonal treasure, mostly brewed during late summer and early autumn. So, when you see it, grab it! You can find this hop sensation at Newport Ave. Market.

The Hopworks Experience

Now, how does this beer stand out among the crowd? That’s simple.

• Single-Varietal Hops
  Many fresh hop IPAs throw together a hodgepodge of hops for a complex flavor profile. Insatiable, however, puts the spotlight on single-varietal Centennial hops. This choice is a pure testament to the hop’s characteristics, delivering notes that are both bold and refined.
• Classic West Coast Flavor
  If you’re a fan of the classic West Coast IPA style, this beer checks all the boxes. It offers a crisp, clear body and a noticeable bitterness that you often miss in many of those soft and juicy hazy options.
• Craft Beer Nostalgia
  Additionally, Insatiable gives a nod to the craft brewing history of the Pacific Northwest, where Centennial hops have long reigned supreme. It’s like sipping on a piece of brewing history!
