Hope Beer New England IPA (Summer Seasonal 2025)

Hope's 2025 Summer Seasonal is a fruit-forward New England Pale Ale, featuring new hop varieties and innovative processing technologies. A newly developed hybrid yeast strain from Lallemand ("Pomona") works with dry hops and low kettle bittering to emphasize a spectrum of fruit flavours, including peach, citrus, and tropical fruits. The American hop HBC 1019 leads with notes of coconut, peach, honeydew, and Valencia orange, used in whirlpool and during dry hopping. Idaho 7 and Azacca, processed as concentrated CGX pellets, add layers of tropical and stone fruit flavours. Mosaic hops introduce citrus and mango hints.
