American Beauty Hazy Ripple IPA | Dogfish Head Craft Brewery | Beer Review | #715

For today's review, I'm going to be taking a look at another beer from the Dogfish Head Craft Brewery, and it's their American Beauty Hazy Ripple IPA, which is a New England-style IPA. I'm pretty excited to give this one a go since it's a hazy from a bigger brewery, so let's see how it is! Commercial Description: It's been a long strange trip, and we're not about to stop now. After six years and four releases of American Beauty, we're back with an encore ... only this time you haven't heard the melody. Together with the Grateful Dead, we're proud to introduce our latest collaborative iteration -- American Beauty Hazy Ripple IPA. Inspired by the Grateful Dead's beloved "American Beauty" album, American Beauty Hazy Ripple IPA is an unfiltered India Pale Ale brewed with spelt -- an ancient heirloom grain that contributes earthy notes and a natural haze -- that's then dosed with a special yeast variety to accentuate hop aromatics. The result is a psychedelic 7.0% ABV ale that's bursting with notes of tropical fruit and juicy citrus, while the style callout lovingly references the fan-favorite track "Ripple."
