“Bright pinecone aroma, with woody, citrus, and stone-fruit hop flavors,” is how Shaun O’Sullivan, brewmaster and cofounder of 21st Amendment, describes their Woolen Socks Cold IPA. “Snappy, bright malt flavors with a crisp bitterness. Rice is used in the brew to tone down the malt fullness and create a lighter ‘cracker-bread’ flavor. Quenching and highly drinkable. If Coors Banquet were to magically become an IPA, this would be it.”
