Player:
Adrift IPA

Team:
Turtle Mountain Brewing

Rio Rancho, NM

Player Stats:
Our brewer got his hands on some exciting hops for this IPA and it'll knock you off course. A large percentage of the bitterness came from the fifty pounds of Azacca whole leaf hops added to the wort at the end of the boil. All the color comes from the melanoidin rich flavors of Munich malt. Then, after fermentation had subsided, Mosaic hops were used to dryhop this beer. The result is an astounding assault on your senses. Citrus and tropical fruits abound with a solid backer of "dankyness" to boot.

Norfolk, VA

Player Stats:
Rule G is the railroad industry's policy against drinking on the job. With tracks running right into the brewery, we spite Rule G daily. Outrageously dry-hopped, this beer has a big hop nose and a dry clean finish that accentuates its citrus and grapefruit undertones. It is a bold beer that can stand up to bold flavors.

Player Stats:
English pale malt is used as a platform to showcase the complex hop variety within. The kettle hops for this beer include Cascade and Centennial, which are added for bittering and flavor, followed by the coveted Galaxy hop which lends itself to the piney and fruity characters in this beer. We then dry-hop with the dynamic trio of Galaxy, Citra, and Amarillo hops - the end result being a nicely balanced and citrusy 'buffalo' of a beer. It's out of this galaxy!

Mojo IPA

Team:
Boulder Beer

Boulder, CO

Player Stats:
First packaged way back in 2003, this IPA from Colorado's First Craft Brewery is anything but traditional. Mojo India Pale Ale was inspired by the English who first shipped their ales to India and the Far East – but brewed with an attitude of the great American West. Pale in color but packed with flavor, Mojo reflects the perfect balance of hop bitterness and malt character. The unique Amarillo hop creates a big, grapefruit-like citrus flavor and aroma, making Mojo a very zesty IPA that's crisp and refreshing.

Player:
Sculpin

Team:
Ballast Point Brewing and Spirits

San Diego, CA

Player Stats:
A trophy beer that's a testament to our homebrew roots. Our Sculpin IPA is a great example of what got us into brewing in the first place. After years of experimenting, we knew hopping an ale at five separate stages would produce something special. The result ended up being this gold-medal winning IPA, whose inspired use of hops creates hints of apricot, peach, mango and lemon flavors, but still packs a bit of a sting, just like a Sculpin fish. The Sculpin IPA is a testament to our humble beginnings as Home Brew Mart. It showcases bright flavors and aromas of apricot, peach, mango & lemon. The lighter body also brings out the crispness of the hops. The Sculpin fish has poisonous spikes on its fins that can give a strong sting. Ironically, the meat from a Sculpin fish is considered some of the tastiest. Something that has a sting but tastes great; sounds like a Ballast Point India Pale Ale.

Player Stats:
Our flagship beer, Loose Cannon wins people over at first smell. The carefully cultivated interplay of Simcoe, Palisade, and Centennial creates a most fragrant IPA - its nose bursts with notes of grapefruit, herbs, and pine. Bitterness is somewhat subdued by the floral quality that pervades the taste. The color is burnished gold, and the mouthfeel is creamy. A strong malt backbone balances out the triple-hopped beer. Its nickname, Hop3, comes from the brewing process: our brewers hop Loose Cannon in the boil, the hopback, and the fermenter. It won a second place CAMRA award at the 2010 Great British Beer Festival.

Union Jack

Team:
Firestone Walker Brewing

Paso Robles, CA

Player Stats:
Union Jack rings all of the bells of an aggressively hopped West Coast IPA, but with an astonishing balance that stands out from the crowd. The name Union Jack is a nod to the colonial origins of the IPA style, and to the British expatriate who co-­-founded our brewery. This originator of our "Jack" IPA family is double dry-­-hopped to create bold grapefruit, tangerine and citrus flavors, all contrasted by pale malt sweetness to rein in the intensity. The result is a tribute to—and a twist on—the IPA style that put the West Coast on the craft beer map.
