The Hoppy Refresher sits outside the beer category entirely. It's carbonated water run through dried hops with a touch of brewer's yeast for biotransformation, pulling aromatic compounds from the hops without any fermentation. No malt, no sugar, nothing to ferment. Zero calories and zero carbohydrate as a result. Citra, Equinox, and Centennial give it a bright, tropical character. The aroma is mango and lime with a hint of bubblegum. In the glass there's lemon, tangerine, and citrus peel, with a thread of pine running underneath. Carbonation is lively. The finish is dry and clean. It's closest to a sparkling water with serious hop character rather than anything approaching beer. Certified gluten-free.
