Smokin' Hops

If you like smoky beers, Brewdog's Paradox is one for you. This is a beer that tastes like it has spent all night at a cigar and whiskey bar. And if you like hops, Bell's Hopslam is a winner. But if you like to smoke your hops, well, put those two together.

Initially, just like the Paradox solo, the blend greets you at the door with clouds of cigar smoke and a whiff of Scotch. But then the hops kicks in and the smoke turns into a more floral, sweeter aroma, as the smoke and the hops mingle. Maybe like someone lit a big joint in a cigar bar?

Complicated flavors in this feisty blend. And you do have to like to smoke.
