Sierra Nevada Torpedo (568ml)

Aromas of citrus, pine, pear, grapefruit, and mango. Sweet notes of bread and caramel from the malt are also present, making this a perfectly balanced masterpiece, unlike any other IPA.

The ultimate, never-ending hop experience.

An American IPA brewed since 2009.

It was Sierra Nevada's first American IPA as a flagship product and the first new flagship in 29 years since the brewery's establishment.

At the time, it was an IPA that maximized the hop characteristics of Citra, the newest hop released the previous year, such as its tropical aroma and flavor.

The name of this beer comes from the innovative dry-hopping equipment called "Hop Torpedo" developed by Ken Grossman and the brewers.

It is a stainless steel vessel with a capacity to hold 150 gallons (570L) of beer and 80 lbs (36kg) of whole hops.

The mechanism is that the device is first filled with hops, and the beer sent from the fermentation tank slowly passes through it and then returns to the fermentation tank.

Depending on the batch size, the beer passes through two vessels before returning to the tank, and continues to circulate for 4 days at a rate of 3 gallons (11L) per minute.

This is an excellent method that can maximize the flavor and aroma of hops without producing unnecessary bitterness.

This beer, with its beautiful fluffy white head and deep orange liquid, bursts with wonderful aromas of citrus, pine, earthiness, pear, and tropical fruits like grapefruit, mango, and papaya from the glass.

Upon tasting, you first experience bready notes and caramel-like sweetness from the malt, and then the hoppy character, which initially feels smooth, immediately transforms into a spicy citrus, followed by floral notes.

A refreshing mouthfeel that seems to melt in your mouth, with a medium body and a very creamy texture.

Crisp and pleasant finish.

Aggressive yet exquisitely balanced, unlike any other IPA.

A fantastic tasting IPA that we recommend to everyone.
