Melvin Brewing , out of Jackson Hole Wyoming , is known for hoppy beers , so when our friends from Melvin came to visit we thought what better way to showcase our mutual hoppy skills than to make a kick-ass Double IPA. We used Apollo , Galaxy and Mosaic hops to create this kung fu hop potion. Sensei says enjoy!
