What if? It’s a question we often ask around here. What if Perpetual were a sort of dirty blonde barleywine? What if we toned down the bitterness but turned up the sticky citrus notes? Enter Perpetual Darkness, a hoppy candy bar of an IPA gone wild with a silky body and an herbal, resiny finish. Available starting December 3 on draft and in limited 16oz cans, only at the brewery.

This is Blizzard of Hops … turned up to 11. For Double Blizzard, we used a cooler temperature for the kettle hop additions, softening the character of the Centennial, Chinook and El Dorado. On the cold side, we dry-hopped with four pounds per barrel of Chinook and Galaxy. At 8.3% ABV, we’re into semi-hazy Double IPA territory, and we like it here. Available on draft and in 16oz cans at the brewery and everywhere our beer is sold. Ask for it at your favorite bottle shop!

The the inspiration for our Blood Orange Cranberry Tart Ale is classic Madras cocktail. Brewed with 17 pounds per barrel of real fruit and fermented with Hornindal Kveik yeast, this beer is a refreshing balance of sweet citrus and the tangy bite of cranberries. Available starting December 7 on draft and in 12oz cans at the brewery and everywhere our beer is sold.

Our velvety and fruity Shabang series gets a shot of the exotic Cara Cara orange – 22 pounds per barrel, in fact! This variation on a navel is extremely sweet and has pink flesh and complex notes of cherry and blackberry. Hornindal Kveik yeast adds subtle notes of tropical pineapple, and vanilla and a shot of milk sugar deliver a silky sweet depth. Available starting December 17 on draft and in limited 16oz cans, only at the brewery.

It’s impossible to forget your first squeeze. Once a year, as the newest humulus lupulus harvest arrives at Tröegs, we blend these super-fresh hops into an Imperial Amber Ale. Excessively dry-hopped, Nugget Nectar is an explosion of pine, resin and mango. Available starting December 28 on draft and in bottles and cans at the brewery and everywhere our beer is sold.
