Checkers & Chess | Ocelot Brewing Company
ABV: 6.8%
Style: IPA - American
Actively Produced
Description: Checkers & Chess was one of our favorite hoppy releases last year, and when we secured a grip of profoundly expressive 2023 Freestyle NZ Cascade a few months ago, this 6.8% Southern Hemisphere IPA was swiftly added back to our brew schedule. As usual, pilsen performs the role of base malt… just before oat malt, flaked wheat, and flaked rye steal the scene with their soft silkiness. Secret Citra, ever the unsung hero, dominates the whirlpool. Then, for the grand finale, NZ Cascade goes toe to toe with Galaxy in the dry-hop. An even 50-50 split. Has that big tropical Australian bully finally met its match? Are you having fun? Explosions of guava. Citrus. Lychee. Peach. Passion fruit. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
