Description
CORNUCOPIA is one of two collaboration beers with our good Hackney Wick friends Howling Hops Brewery. When discussing ideas for the recipe, we wanted a flavour profile that linked to the other beer, a sour based on a margarita cocktail, and settled on an IPA with corn as the main base malt. The artwork is inspired by the patterns often found mysteriously carved into fields of corn across the world.
CORNUCOPIA is an IPA brewed with corn for a very pale and light body, and fermented with Hoppin Pils yeast, for a cleaner and lighter body. We then dry hopped the beer whilst it was still fermenting, to encourage a drier finish, and then dry hopped it a second time to give the hop flavour and aroma a strong punch.
