Single Fin is a Belgian-style Blonde Ale. This beer is modeled after a Belgian Single or Enkel which is a low-alcohol table beer for monks in Trappist monastery. They are traditionally brewed for daily consumption and can be difficult to find beyond the walls of the monastery. The concept behind Single Fin was to make available locally a low alcohol, but flavorful beer that retained the traditional profile and body of a Trappist-style beer.

The second in our Single Hop IPA series features Columbus Hops, a dual-purpose varietal good for bittering with its spicy, resin flavor. It's also recognized for its fresh, citrusy aromatics. You’ll love the bitterness and the bold flavors and aromas of this special edition IPA.

HBC-431 is a hop so new, it doesn't even have a name. It has a unique combination of tropical fruit, citrus and melon with distinct earthy notes. Try amping up the spice on light proteins with this monster.

A golden-colored beer with notes of bread and caramel with a dry finish. The showcase Columbus hops feature a spicy, earthy profile that accentuates some of the malt tones and ester content of the American yeast.

Pungent Citra hop aroma filled with tropical fruits including mangoes, lychee, and gooseberry. Backed by a strong malt backbone, the Citra IPA is a tropical hop showcase as this popular hop carries the beer through. Especially bitter and crisp, each sip is starts sweet and ends with the perfect hop pucker.

This IPA has a big grass and citrus nose that agitates out with the carbonation. A slightly harsher, earthier hop, Comet has big notes of grass and grapefruit which blends nicely with the Munich malt that provide the amber-ish hue. A lasting bitterness finishes the beer.

A pleasant sweet nose with hints of citrus and a slightly woody character. The body is medium with citrus overtones and a hint of grass. Altogether extremely drinkable.

Pours a cloudy orange with a tight white head. Notes of orange and resin fill the nose. Prepare yourself for huge fruit flavors. Tangerine, Pineapple, and mango showcase throughout while a steady but unintrusive malt body balances it all out.

Apollo hops are known for their high alpha acid content, between 15% – 19%, and are typically used for its bittering qualities. This hop varietal was developed at the Hopsteiner Breeding Program from 2 experimental varietals; the new hop was further crossed with Zeus hops, and Apollo was born. Apollo has a resinous hop flavor, with citrus notes, some earthy qualities, and a spiciness that may be apparent in the finish. The aroma features some orange and grapefruit citrus qualities with an earthy and slight spice note.

Calypso hops are a dual purpose hop that was originally bred from the Nugget hop varietal. These large, square-ish hops have an alpha acid content of approximately 12% – 14%. Prized for their fruity character, we at HBC are excited to bring this hop to our single hop series. Calypso has a resinous hop bitterness that lasts well into the finish. It has a fruity and earthy hop character that has hints of pear, melon, with a light spicy finish.

Citra is the most well received in our series of Single Hop beers. After taking Gold in 2011 and 2012 at the California Craft Brew Competition, and due to its high demand with our consumers, we decided to make this a year-round style. This IPA pours a dark amber in color with an off-white head. The hop aroma is floral, with citrus notes, while the malts have a toasted barley character with some caramel. Citra‘s hop flavor is resiny, with some citrus quality that is offset by toasty malt flavors with a touch of caramel. This is a moderately full bodied beer, with a bright carbonation, and a dry finish.

It’s not too often we rebrew a single hop IPA, but when we do, it’s because it’s too delicious not to. Thankfully, Galaxy falls into this category. This hop varietal was developed, and is exclusively grown, in Australia. Galaxy was developed from Perle hops bred with a high alpha acid female hop grown in Australia; the resulting hop has an alpha acid content that ranges from 11% – 16%. Galaxy hops are typically used as late additions to accentuate its flavor and aromatic qualities. As a hop varietal, Galaxy has citrus, peach, and passion fruit flavors. Our IPA has a hop aroma that has a grapefruit-like citrus quality with a slight tropical fruit character. The flavor has grapefruit-like citrus notes and a touch of guava with some stone fruit character. Galaxy has an assertive hop bitterness that lasts well into the finish.

Mandarina Bavaria is a fairly new hop, grown in Hull, Germany. It has only been available to brewers since 2012. Its lineage is the Cascade hop and is Germany’s answer to the fruit-forward New World hops like Citra and Galaxy. Mandarina imparts fantastic Satsuma mandarin orange flavor. It has a nice, fruity aroma and is an all-around great hop to stand alone in a Single Hop IPA.

Classic American Pale but also brewed with Munich, Wheat and Rye Malts for a smooth body and a bit of spiciness. Only Cascade hops were used throughout, from the boil to dry-hopping. Highly Hopped!
