Ska Brewing Debuts New Mainline Brew & GABF Event Lineup

Ska Brewing believes that when life hands you hops, you make a fruity, juicy, hop bursting IIPA! So, when the Durango local found a surplus of Galaxy hops on their hands from an order, they did just that. It was destiny that the plethora of product allowed the brewery to create their latest year-round offering. Bad Hop Contract Double IPA is the newest brew and will make its debut at the Great American Beer Festival. There’s also a whole list of events where Ska fans can feast their taste buds on the newly released BHC DIPA & other ska suds during GABF week.

The Beer:

BHC DIPA is filled with tropical aromatics that will pull you in and fall in love with this brew. It’ll then give way to a sweet stone fruit flavor. The brew ends with an enjoyable bitterness. Additionally, as all of Ska’s fans know, the Durango brewery is known for their artwork. The design on this particular can is a skeleton hand signing off on the hops contract.

“In Ska Brewing’s legend and lore, which includes a variety of comic book-like stories, characters and artwork, the hand belongs to Pinstripe, a villain, the Chief of Conglomeration, who is to blame for anything bad that happens to the brewery,” said Westword‘s Jonathan Shikes.

Ska will be celebrating the new release of BHC DIPA on September 30th at Ska Brewing World Headquarters. Hear more about this new release from the brewery, their CEO, Dave Thibodeau, and sales manager, Arlo Grammatica, here.

Beer Stats:

ABV: 8% | IBUs: 75 | Hops: Galaxy & El Dorado | Availability: CO, TX, MO, KS, CA, IL, NM, AZ, NE, and MN.
