Dust Bowl Brewing Co. has added a new beer to its year-round lineup with the release of The Big GIIPA, an Imperial Grapefruit IPA. The beer comes in at 9.7% ABV and 78 IBUs.
According to Brewmaster Don Oliver, the beer was created for the 19.2-ounce single-serve format, which continues to grow in popularity. “We have a healthy following of big, hoppy beer fans and The Big GIIPA serves up the high abv, fruity hop punch they are looking for,” Oliver said. He added that the grapefruit provides complementary citrus notes to the hop-forward profile.
The Big GIIPA is now available in 19.2-ounce cans at Dust Bowl retailers. It can also be found on draft at the brewery’s taprooms in Turlock, Livermore, Elk Grove, and Monterey, California, with to-go options available.
