HBC-431 is a hop so new, it doesn't even have a name. It's an experimental variety from a cutting-edge hop supplier. 

With a unique combination of melon, tropical fruit, stone fruit, pine and earth notes, our head brewer said it's unlike any beer he's ever been with. 

We told him that everyone goes through an experimental phase. 

Single Hop Imperial IPA with HBC-431, our first Single Hop series release of 2015, just hit the bottle and is available for growler fills in our tasting room starting tomorrow. It also premieres on draft next Thursday at Sean Bolan's in Bel Air, MD.

From there, it will be available in 6-packs and on tap throughout the mid-Atlantic. Check our Beer Finder to track it down near you.
