The Hop Concept to Release Dank & Sticky IPA in 16oz Cans

From The Hop Concept:

San Marcos, CA – The Hop Concept’s Dank & Sticky IPA returns this April, sporting a new look in 16oz cans.

“People have been asking for us to can Dank & Sticky for a while,” said Tomme Arthur, COO and Co-Founder of Port Brewing, The Lost Abbey, and The Hop Concept. “Now that we have our canning line, we were able to make this a reality.”

The first beer to come off The Hop Concept’s new canning line, Dank and Sticky IPA was brewed with Eureka, Mosaic, Cascade, Comet, Simcoe, Chinook varietals.

Dank & Sticky begins with freshly peeled citrus zest and piney aromas on the nose leading to a smooth and slightly creamy mouth-feel, bursting with Grapefruit and Mango notes with a considerable “Dank” resinous finish.

“Dank and Sticky was already a favorite amongst our brewers,” Said Stephen Burchill, Head Brewer of Port Brewing, The Lost Abbey, and The Hop Concept. “Being able to play with all these hops to create a resinous West Coast IPA is a blast.”

The Hop Concept’s Dank & Sticky IPA (8.5% ABV) will be available throughout the Port Brewing / Lost Abbey / The Hop Concept distribution network in 4-packs of 16oz cans and limited 22oz bottles and draft beginning April 5th.
