Dang This is Dope!

Zipline Brewing Co just keeps on creating the most interesting and delightful IPAs! Dope has been on my list for a few weeks now and I snagged a six pack to see for myself what everyone else was saying about it.

I love how the front end grabs your attention with a burst of citrus and tropical notes. The finish starts out with a dankness and slowly fades into a subtle bit of sweetness for me. I like the carbonation levels in this one, I think it really enhances the flavor profile!

Dope is made with these two hops:

  • Lotus brings orange, vanilla, and tropical fruit notes. Orange is a big factor in the aroma also.

  • Cashmere brings overtones of lemon, peach, and melon. The aroma is citrus and tropical fruit.

This IPA comes in at a healthy 7.7% but definitely doesn’t drink like that. Looking forward also to having this one on tap!

Cheers!
