Sierra Nevada Powder Day IPA
Sierra Nevada started dry-hopping, and things snowballed into a full-on Powder Day IPA.
The brewery's new seasonal is piled high with hop flavor thanks to lupulin powder, the tiny pods of pure aroma and flavor hidden inside hop cones. Double dry-hopping cranks up the depth and complexity, stacking layers of fruity notes: citrus, mango, pineapple, and stone fruit.
Powder Day pours a shimmery gold, capped by snowy foam, and boasts a 7.7% ABV. It's only available through March, so now's the time to leap waist-deep into hops.
