New Realm Brewing, a craft brewery that boasts its flagship location in Atlanta, has launched a delectable new duo of imperial IPAs that make unabashedly bold use of hops in addition to generous but non-overpowering bitterness.
Dubbed 'Tank Dog,' this imperial IPA series comprises an imperial IPA and a West Coast-style imperial IPA. The first in the offering, the 'Tank Dog Hazy Imperial IPA,' is a double dry-hopped offering that offers strong notes of tropical fruit such as pineapple, with a massive dose of hop dancing in concert with fruity sweetness in a package that comes in at 9.6 percent ABV. Meanwhile, the 'West Coast Style Tank Dog' uses a trio of hops and careful use of dank aromatics as well as citrus, making it an eminently crushable IPA.
Available in a single-serve can format, these imperial IPAs are ideal for grab-and-go applications and to cater to people who want to try new brews without making over-the-top commitments from the get go.
