MugiHuh, the last Rogue keg? That alone already feels kind of dramatic!
Hop BroExactly. It’s the final Rogue keg the bar had secured, and it’s a hazy IPA at 6.5% ABV.
MugiHazy? What’s that? Does it mean some kind of foggy IPA?
Hop BroBasically, it means a style with some haze and hop aroma pushed to the front. And this one has a really strong tropical aroma too.
MugiWow, just the aroma sounds like a trip to the tropics! And it even has yuzu citrus notes? That’s almost unfair!
Hop BroAccording to the article, salty edges are layered with tropical fruit, yuzu, and citrus, and the finish comes together in a clean, citrus-forward way.
MugiWhat is that, way too many flavor layers! But being able to follow the layers of aroma sounds like you could explore it while drinking!
Hop BroThat’s the interesting part. Drinking it at an American beer bar like Wailele pairs perfectly with the atmosphere and the feel of a West Coast IPA.
MugiNice, now my head is full of beer! Next up, I’m definitely in the mood for a pint on draft!
