Bale Breaker Brewing recently added a new club to its bag, a new weapon to its arsenal, a new beer to it’s lineup. Bottomcutter Imperial IPA is currently available as a draft-only beer, but rest assured that aluminum cans are on the way. (Pictured at right: a bottom cutter working the harvest in Field 41, near Bale Breaker Brewing in Moxee, WA).
From the brewery:
This March, keep an eye out for Bottomcutter IIPA, a new year-round beer from Yakima’s Bale Breaker Brewing Company!
Double dry-hopped with homegrown Yakima hops, Bottomcutter IIPA may be light in color but is packed with citrus and pine hop character. This Imperial IPA is brewed to finish dry, perfect for the combination of Citra®, Simcoe®, and Equinox™ hops. As the bottomcutter is a tractor that leads the topcutter through the fields during harvest, this beer will lead to a new appreciation for our valley’s hops!
