Hop Therapy from the Russel Brewing Co. is a beer that specifically shows off a variety of 100% American hops. The Hop Therapy India Session Ale was recently given a new look, courtesy of Atmosphere Design, which like any good Double IPA brew, is all about the hops.
The new beer boxes and cans have a refreshing green coloring, which is an ode itself to the color of a beer hop. With a lower alcohol level, this beer's flavor is more so about the enjoyment of hop varities like Amarillo, Cascade and Columbus. With the brews now branded as a "Refreshing hop remedy," it might not be exactly what the doctor ordered, but a sip of the India Session Ale will surely have you feeling better in no time.
