Sunday Night Suds - Uinta Grapefruit Hop Nosh IPA


This week's Sunday Night Suds looks at Uinta Grapefruit Hop Nosh IPA.

I've been a long time fan of the Hop Nosh line since the very beginning when they called it Hop Notch (see review here https://kosherbeers.blogspot.com/2012/07/sunday-night-suds-uinta-hop-notch-ipa.html). Since then, there has been a tangerine flavored Hop Nosh (reviewed here https://kosherbeers.blogspot.com/2016/07/sunday-night-suds-uinta-hop-nosh.html) and now, the Grapefruit Hop Nosh IPA.

Of all the iterations of the Hop Nosh, this is the most fruity and yet the most bitter. The Grapefruit Hop Nosh is made with white grapefruit juice but the added fruit flavor works well with brew and does not taste artificial. The beer also is on the high end of the alcohol scale as its 7.5% abv. But the alcohol flavor is not overpowering either and the beer tastes well balanced. It may not be easy to find on the east coast (I bought mine in Chicago), but its worth making the trek if you know where to find it.

Uinta Grapefruit Hop Nosh IPA is under the Kosher Supervision of the OU and there is an OU on the side of the can. Keep in mind, not every brew produced by Uinta is under kosher supervsion, so be sure to check the bottle/can and the OU website.

As always, please remember to drink responsibly and to never waste good beer unless there is no designated driver.
