Pushing hop saturation to the extreme, Hop Butcher For The World Triple Grid Triple India Pale Ale delivers massive aroma, dense body, and elevated intensity at 10.5% ABV.

Despite its substantial strength, the beer maintains a remarkably soft mouthfeel with restrained bitterness and minimal alcohol heat, allowing the saturated tropical fruit character to dominate from aroma through finish. Thick, juicy, and intensely aromatic, Triple Grid showcases the modern triple IPA style with full-bodied hop expression and dangerously smooth drinkability.

Eclipse rounds out the blend with bursts of sweet mandarin orange and candied citrus zest. A soft, hazy malt body built with oats and wheat provides a plush mouthfeel that supports the beer’s explosive aromatics without harsh bitterness. Juicy, layered, and intensely aromatic, First Futures showcases Hop Butcher’s hop-forward brewing style with a clean finish and elevated drinkability for a double IPA of its size.

Built around a focused expression of Citra hops, Hop Butcher For The World Double Snorkel Squad Double IPA delivers massive hop saturation with a smooth, modern hazy profile at 8.0% ABV. Layers of bright citrus, ripe mango, pineapple, and candied orange explode from the glass, driven by heavy Citra dry-hopping and a soft, pillowy malt bill featuring oats and wheat for enhanced body and haze stability. The elevated ABV adds depth and richness without overwhelming heat, while restrained bitterness allows the juicy tropical character to remain front and center. Dense, aromatic, and intensely flavorful, Double Snorkel Squad showcases Hop Butcher’s signature approach to hop-forward brewing with a silky mouthfeel and clean, saturated finish.
