El Toro Extra Hoppy Poppy Jasper
American Amber Ale5.2% ABV
El Toro Brewing CompanyMorgan Hill, CA
We take our Poppy Jasper Amber and spike a finished keg with an extra pound of hops. For example Extra Hoppy Poppy Amarillo has an extra pound of Amarillo hops added to the keg to dry hop in it. This adds a boost of hops flavor. Since each different variety of hops has its own flavor the type of hops added will vary the flavor of the base Poppy Japser accordingly. If you are into hops, this method of hop spiking a keg will allow you to better understand the characteristics of that particular hop. Its and educational thing we do on our part for you. Plus the flavors added this way are really nice (as Borat would say).
