Reformation Brewery Launches Self-Titled Reformation IPA

Posted on by mashingin

Reformation Brewery (Atlanta, Georgia) has officially announced that Reformation IPA will join the brewery’s Year-Round lineup in late February/early March 2022.

Here to replace the brewery’s Rotating Seasonal IPA – Nolan the Wanderer, Reformation IPA is an unfiltered American India Pale Ale featuring Talus, Citra and Mosaic hops. Coming in at 6.5% ABV, Reformation IPA is loaded with grapefruit and pineapple notes.

“We fell in love with the Talus hop, which gives this beer an intense citrus aroma and ripe notes of grapefruit and pineapple. We also love the little bit of pine resin that balances out all those fruit forward notes. As we searched for this hop, we built a great relationship with the people at Hop Head Farms (in Southwest Michigan) who supply our contract of this unique and robust hop,” said Ryan Morley-Stockton, Business Operations Director.

“Reformation has wandered through new styles of IPA’s and different varieties of hops with our rotating IPA series, and learned so much from that journey. We’ve also brewed countless IPA test batches at our R&D facility in Woodstock in search of a liquid that is both balanced and timeless – yet uniquely Reformation. Reformation IPA is fueled by feedback from our community and is a beer they can truly call their own,” Stockton added.

Reformation IPA is rolling out now with availability in 12 oz. cans and on draft. You can expect to find this new Year-Round at all Reformation Brewery locations and at craft beer-focused establishments located throughout Georgia. Prost!
