It’s HopSlam Season

by John on January 11, 2010 · 2 comments

It’s officially HopSlam season, which means that we are privileged to one of the best beers on earth from January 7th until mid February.  This double IPA is a must for any hop fiend and beer lovers in general.  I’m serious.  If you like hops, this stuff is like candy.  It contains a delicious bitter hopiness, but is still a little sweet due to added honey.  It would be great if this was a year around beer, but the short period of availability really makes this a special seasonal choice.  I picked up my first six pack of the season this weekend and was reminded of why I have been craving the release date.  I even got out my boot to celebrate.

I’m going to have to see if Total Wine carries that particular variety of Bell’s. They have a few others.

I just returned home from retrieving my 1/2 barrel of Hop Slam for my kegerator. I hooked it up, poured a sample and am currently enjoying.
