Hell’s Bells is our unapologetic take on a Midwestern IPA, forged through a bold double decoction mash and a relentless onslaught of Centennial, Simcoe, and Nelson Sauvin hops. A structured malt backbone balances its’ assertive bitterness, while biotransformation dry-hopping unleashes bright grapefruit, resinous pine, passion fruit, and white grape aromatics. Naturally carbonated, unfiltered, and brewed without compromise. Let the bells toll!

Midwestern IPA at 5% ABV - no canning date but within 2 months.
Pours a clear orange bronze with two fingers of creamy off white to tawny coloured head.
Nose is muted - a bit of bready malt up front with floral notes and hints of citrus.
On the palate there is definitely an initial bready malt sweetness with floral hops and a softly herbal bitterness - hints of pine.
Smooth and clean medium mouthfeel with nice carbonation and a creamy gentle bittersweet finish.
Interesting and tasty beer that, though lacking a real hop punch and would struggle to pick out as an IPA, is nevertheless remarkably drinkable and could enjoy anytime (perhaps if they had called it a pale ale, which seems more apt).
