Dogfish & Sierra - Life & Limb part 2

 
The second installation of the Dogfish Head & Sierra Nevada collaboration Life & Limb is coming called Rhizing Bines.  This East meets West IPA is a follow up to the 2009 collabo which was a 10% strong dark brew made with Calagione family maple.  Rhizing Bines is set to release this February in 750ml bottles and on draft.



Rhizing Bines is an IPA like no other.  The beer is being brewed in Delaware at Dogfish with their continuous hopping technique featuring the brand new hop varietal Bravo.  Then the beer is being shipped to the new Sierra Nevada brewery in North Carolina for their torpedo hopping technique, from there the beer is shipped back to Delaware where it is dry hopped once more with a super new experimental hop which is called Hop644 (too new to name).  Not to mention a new Carolina heirloom wheat to round out the backbone of this brew with nutty notes.  Finally this beer will be bottled and kegged weighing in at 8% and 70 IBU's.
Find this beer a solid craft beer distributors like Bay Shore Beer and Liberty Beverages in East Meadow.  Also join us for A Hop Eclipse Now event in Bay Shore at TJ Finleys 6pm Friday March 15th 2013 which will feature 60/75/90/120min, Rhizing Bines, Hellhound, Burton Baton and Aprihop.
