Alcibiades I

Imperial India Pale Ale 8.2% ABV

Alcibiades is a rotating series of Imperial India Pale Ales. In each variation, we utilize the same malt bill but change the dry hop varieties. We save all of the hopping for the cold side of the brewing process, which results in the largest dry hop of all of our beers to date. This iteration was dry hopped with a substantial amount of Citra® hops from the United States and Riwaka™ hops from New Zealand. Crafted with American malted barley, malted red wheat, flaked white wheat, and our house ale yeast, this ale is complex, juicy, and incredibly drinkable. We taste notes of orange sorbet, gummy bears, mango gelato, and passion fruit. It is named after Alcibiades (450 - 404 BCE), who was an Athenian statesman and general. He was known for his extravagance and debauchery, leading him to be exiled from Athens twice and from Sparta once. In fact, the famous philosopher Socrates attempted to correct Alcibiades' behavior but was unable to do so!
