Milky Way | Bad Beat Brewing
ABV: 6.8%
Style: IPA - New England
Actively Produced
Description: Adding lactose to an IPA sounds crazy, but so did sending humans into space, the internet, and deliberately brewing and serving a murky beer. Our galaxy, the Milky Way, is a vast, wonderous and mysterious place. Humans have been pondering at the stars for-literally-ever, and it’s easy to place that wonder and amazement we get looking at the stars into things we do here on planet Earth. For us, that is beer, and hops are the stars in our little slice of the universe. So when we had the chance to get our hands on some Galaxy hops, we thought it fitting to include other parts of the cosmos as well, like an older hop that has found new life, Comet, and milk sugar, lactose. With the creamy/milky sweetness from the lactose, we knew we had to be a little more heavy handed in the hops department. Thus, we added just under 4.5 pounds of Galaxy and Comet hops per barrel of beer…. (at a 3 to 1 ratio favoring Galaxy of course). What we got, is an IPA as unique as the galaxy around us. Beautiful and gigantic notes of sweet grapefruit, fruit punch, peach, and citrus rind just explode out of the glass and will tingle all your tastebuds.
