Espiga Octopint

Espiga Octopint is a Hazy IPA with an intense aromatic expression, brewed with a double dry hopping of freshly harvested American hops. Inspired by the legendary Octopint octopus' journey along the Pacific coasts, this beer fuses the resinous and herbal character of the new McKenzie hop with the tropical and citrus profile of Ekuanot. The result is a juicy IPA, silky on the palate, and loaded with nuances of tropical fruits, white grape, melon, papaya, pineapple, and a subtle touch of pepper and thyme that adds complexity and freshness.
