Suburban Chicago-based brewery Alter Brewing may have only been around for seven years so far, but the brewery made a name for itself very early on in its existence with the advent of its 'Alter, Dank You' double IPA, which is precisely why an upgraded and reinvented version of this hoppy delight is being reintroduced to market.
While dankness may have negative connotations in certain circles, the fact of the matter is that Alter Brewing celebrates and fetes the dank quality of its hop blend. Accordingly, a truly unique blend of hops was formulated this year to be able to guarantee a delightful and memorable drinking experience, with CryoPop and Eureka varieties of hops doing the honors.
Alter Brewing describes 'Alter, Dank You' as a 'heavy-duty double IPA' that comprises an explosion of dank and tropical flavors and aromas.
