Tröegs Independent Brewing announces the release of Blizzard of Hops, its longest running and most sought-after seasonal IPA.

Since its debut in 2014, the winter IPA has been a mainstay of the independent, family-owned brewery’s rotating seasonal series.

“Blizzard of Hops really has become a wildly popular winter seasonal for us, especially in our home state of Pennsylvania,” says Tröegs brewmaster and co-founding brother John Trogner.

Brewed as a tribute to hop growers around the world, Blizzard of Hops evokes notes of spruce tips, pineapple, and orange rind thanks to a combination of Centennial, Chinook, El Dorado, and Galaxy hops.

“In the winter, our taste buds dull a bit, so we tend to eat richer, fattier foods,” explains Trogner. “The lively bitterness of Blizzard of Hops really helps balance that out.”

Built on a foundation of pilsner malt and wheat, this cold-weather favorite clocks in at 6.4% ABV.

“It’s the perfect beer to drink while you’re shoveling snow,” adds Trogner.

Blizzard of Hops is available on draft and in 12-oz bottles and cans at Tröegs and across its entire distribution footprint.
