Karl Strauss Tower X
Tower X is a West Coast IPA at 7.3% ABV and 60 IBU. It combines the character of classic West Coast IPA with modern brewing techniques and hop selection. Built around C-series hops, it brings pine, resinous notes and citrus aromas, followed by a firm bitterness. It is a fitting choice for drinkers who enjoy a clearly defined West Coast profile.

Its recipe has been tuned for today’s craft beer scene, combining old and new American hops to balance a nostalgic 2000s IPA character with modern drinkability.
