About this beer

Von Ebert Brewing’s Tropical Substance is an India Pale Ale brewed with natural flavor, clocking in at 6.9% ABV. This release, part of the Volatile Substance Varietal Series, aims to reimagine the brewery’s flagship Volatile Substance Northwest IPA while maintaining bold hop flavors and aromas. It’s a vibrant blend of YCH Citra®, YCH Krüshö, YCH Riwäka™, Haas Krüshö, and Abstrax’s Pineapple Skyfarm for a magical tropical twist. The label art features a stylized, green and white parrot perched amongst lush tropical foliage, with the beer's name boldly displayed in a flowing, script-like font.

The beer’s description emphasizes a focus on natural flavors, distinguishing it from IPAs relying on artificial adjuncts. The complex hop bill suggests an expected profile of citrus, passionfruit, and potentially stone fruit notes, supported by the pineapple aroma enhancement. Packaged in 16oz cans, this IPA is intended to showcase the interplay between traditional IPA structure and innovative flavoring techniques.
