Collaboration Cold IPA with Wren House Brewing
What is a Cold IPA and what makes it different, you may be thinking? The main difference is we took a clean 34/70 lager yeast and fermented this beer warm like a traditional ale. Not only is there less SO2 (Sulfur Dioxide) pick up during a warmer fermentation, but the lager yeast allows the hops to shine without competing ale yeast strain esters. The result is a perfect balance of hops and drinkability. Our Cold Boi was created with the thought of combating the warm summer months in our hometowns. Together we used a blend of hand-selected Citra, Mosaic, Simcoe, and HBC-586 hops from our 2021 crop selections with Yakima Chief. At 6.5% this crispy, light-bodied, and hoppy IPA will have you thinking about Cold Boi Summer for all your upcoming adventures!

Can poured into a Tioga Sequoia Brewing Co pint glass
A: Pours faintly hazy golden yellow with a frothy off white head that settles somewhat quickly to a light layer and leaves a little spotty lacing.
S: Ripe tropical and stone fruit, juicy citrus, a touch of pine, faint grassy herbal notes, biscuity malt, and caramel sweetness.
T: Tropical and stone fruit, mango, peach, passion fruit, apricot, and hints of pineapple and lychee, zesty citrus, grapefruit, lemon, and tangerine, a little resinous pine, slightly grassy, biscuity malt, and caramel sweetness.
M: Medium body, moderate carbonation.
O: Not quite as crisp as I was expecting, coulda used a little lighter malt and maybe a touch more Simcoe, but not a bad summer beer. Hits the spot after a day working in the sun.
