About this beer

Other Half Brewing’s Blacktop Buckets is a Double Dry Hopped Imperial India Pale Ale boasting an ABV of 8.2%. The beer is described as hazy and brewed with a blend of hand-selected hops lending notes of cherry hard candy, brick dust, and pink pineapple. Specifically, the hop bill features Citra, Nelson Sauvin, Simcoe, El Dorado, and Motueka/Nectaron Cross. The label artwork depicts a playful, cartoonish scene of two green, vaguely humanoid figures engaging in a basketball game on a court set against a backdrop of stylized urban buildings.

The brewing process clearly emphasizes hop aroma and flavor, building upon the robust malt base typical of Imperial IPAs. Blacktop Buckets presents a juicy and aromatic profile, aiming for brightness and complexity through the carefully curated hop combination, and its hazy appearance suggests a focus on preserving hop oils and aromatics during fermentation.
