Sierra Nevada Torpedo is a big American IPA; bold, assertive, and full of flavour, highlighting the complex citrus, pine, and herbal character of whole-cone American hops.
At Sierra Nevada they take hops pretty seriously, which is why they weren't satisfied with the standard method of dry hopping for their first year-round IPA. They spent years tinkering, tasting, and tweaking to get the biggest and best hop flavours and aromas into their beer.
Persistence paid off. Their obsession with harnessing huge hop flavour led to the development of what they call the hop torpedo; a revolutionary method of dry-hopping designed, built, and debuted at their brewery. The torpedo is a sleek, stainless-steel piece of hardware that delivers more pure hop aroma than any method of dry-hopping Sierra Nevada has ever seen. Like all Sierra Nevada beers, Torpedo Extra IPA uses only the best whole-cone hops possible making this delicious ale well worth the wait.
