Fifth Hammer Brewing Company’s first IPA is a 6.7% India Pale Ale brewed with Pilsner Malt, Oats & Wheat. It is hopped with 22lbs of fresh wet whole leaf NY State Nugget hops through a hop back, and bittered with Centennial pellets, and whirlpool and dry-hopped with Mosaic and Simcoe Cryo-Hops. It is an abundantly aromatic transcontinental IPA with a moderate bitterness that ensures a crisp bright finish. Mildly tart and obnoxiously quaffable.

Had it on tap at Fifth Hammer Brewing tap room. Tactical Panic is a tasty and flavorful IPA that displays moderate bitterness, is accessible, and displays all the hallmarks of the style.
It pours a clear golden color with a medium foam head that displays good retention.
Aromas of citrus, tropical fruit, berries and pine.
Similarly, the taste displays the fruity qualities from the aroma, with a bright grapefruit zest leading the way. Furthermore, there is a grassy, piny and peppery quality that showcases the herbal hops. Medium bodied with a dry finish. Incredibly smooth malt backbone. Very drinkable. Very well done.
