Hop Soup
No that is not Hop Soup, This is Hop Soup
Recipe: Hop Soup (59)
Brewer: Fred Bonjour

Style: American IPA
TYPE: All Grain
Taste: (45.0) This is a not to style beer. The grain bill is a Dopplebock grain bill. This gives it a tremendous amount of malt to offset an absolutely insane amount of hops.

1 Pound of leaf hops was too much. 1/3 of my boil kettle was hops, thus Hop Soup. Capped the boil and impedied boil off
This beer has a very mild and smooth bitterness is seems to be something around 50 IBU's (remember this was 1 pound of whole hops put in the dry kettle.) The aroma has a herbal character that some describe as grassy.
This is an easy drinking, easy to drink, easy to slam beer that will sneak up on you with a reverse slam.
