About Green Bullet:
Looking for new and unique hops for our 9th Anniversary brew I turned my focus toward New Zealand hops where I discovered a variety called Green Bullet. I think this hop must have be developed just for Green Flash Brewing as I found it to be brightly floral, piney, pungent, and spicy. This discovery set the stage for a new Anniversary beer that would end up being a triple IPA, Green Bullet. While I was searching for new hop varieties I also discovered a wonderfully fruity hop variety called Pacific Gem. I decided right away that I would bring these two hops together to add finesse to a monstrous beer. The end result of brewing triple IPA with these two hops is a full body, soft pine and citrus hoppiness upfront with tropical notes of mango and pineapple, and a moderate aggressive bitter finish. It‘s extremely well rounded and nicely balanced for a beer of this strength with the alcohol being well hidden for a more pleasurable drinking and celebrating experience. 10.1% ABV, over 100 IBU
