A Note on This Beer

For every finger on your hand, there’s a reason to grab a can of Five Threads’ 5X IPA! 

1) It clocks a staggering 17% ABV! That’s one colossal Quintuple IPA; a shocking amount of boozy bang for your buck. We hardly ever see hopbombs this big!

2) There’s super juicy flavor to match the high octane ABV: Bru-1, Citra, Mosaic, Centennial, and Cascade Hops create lush notes of sweet mango, creamy papaya, candied orange peel, and crushed berry kush. The sweet heat of the high ABV comes through on the finish, but never overwhelms the palate.  

3) Every glowing gulp is opulently thick and full, like a cold can of fruit nectar minus the syrupy sweetness. On the finish, there’s a tingle of quenching crispness, making this Quintuple shockingly easy to crush. It’s perfect for sharing with a pal!

4) Fans rate all of Five Threads’ other 5X styles 4+ on UT, solidifying them as master crafters of high ABV brews. 

5) Buzzfeed calls Five Threads the Best Brewery in all of California! Considering the Golden State has more craft breweries than any other, that’s some serious praise. 

Now that you’ve got your reasons, your fingers are free to tap that ‘Get it’ button. Then, you can high five your nearest friend, co-worker, or even Fido, and prepare to grasp a can as soon as it lands!

Tastes like an IPA, gets you drunk like scotch. A little on the bitter-er side of IPAs, not really my style, but glad I tried it

So I just had to try it. 4 levels here. 1 - smell is ok, nothing too harsh. 2 - taste is a bit harsh, but not bad, it’s grainy. 3 - aftertaste - really nice, solid citrus flavor. 4 - sitting with this than comes the grain again. At this ABV and size, I don’t think I’d go back to it - but for the experience it was worth it.

Surprisingly "light" for a 17% beer! Has a pretty bitter hop profile up front, but has a smooth, crisp citrus finish

When it comes to a quintuple this one is dangerous. Smooth, bold, and rich. Wish I bought more

Actually far smoother than I had anticipated .Not quite the hop bomb if you’re going by IBU or ABV. Quite nice, if only for the high ABV.

Unique and special beer. Citrus and pineapple swirl throughout the beer with an impactful bitterness that is tamed by the alcohol. Strangely smooth and drinkable for 17% ABV and 170 IBU.
