Don’t be scared, it’s only Ghost Hop. This spookily pale IPA (white IPA) technically doesn’t exist in style guidelines. It is the contrast to the now commonly seen Dark/Black IPAs or Cascadian Dark Ales.
The beer is a unique contrast from the standard IPA recipe. It is hopped like a normal IPA and has a standard IPA malt bill MINUS any dark caramelized or crystal malts. A heavy amount of White Wheat adds body & head retention and the lack of the darker caramel malts leave this beer as pale as a Belgian Wit, which is the other twist… This beer is fermented on Belgian Wit yeast as opposed to the typical Californian yeast you would find in most IPAs.
