Across The Sea
IPA
Cortez, CO
Billy Goat Hops Used:
Cascade
Across the Sea is a pretty unique beer as it is dry hopped entirely with Cascade hops, the fun part is that we blend 50% Billy Goat Cascades with 50% New Zealand Cascades. They play really nicely together and make for a truly unique all Cascade beer with notes of tropical fruit, tropical flowers, and a finishing note of pine.
We use Billy Goat hops in nearly all of our beers for at least the bittering hops and we frequently highlight their hops in the dry hop in hop forward beers. I love the character of Cascades grown in the high desert, it's a fun way to add a little local terroir to our beers!
