Look, I taste probably a thousand IPAs every year. Don’t get me wrong, I’m certainly not upset about it. But after all that hopjuice, only truly special IPAs will invigorate my taste buds. And I know if I’m loving the taste then you probably will, too — that’s why I only share the best of the best with you!

Of course, when this Beyond Repair from Anchorage healed my hoppy fatigue like a miracle elixir of punchy, tropical flavor made of 100% Riwaka Hops, I grabbed as much as possible.

Riwaka is a rarely seen New Zealand hop variety that’s coveted for its powerfully fueled passionfruit character. What makes Beyond Repair so special, though, is that I can count on just a few fingers the number of times I’ve seen a Riwaka single-hop IPA. Not to mention one made by the brewery Thrillist lists as one of the Best in America!

That means the sweet and tangy flavors of pink passionfruit rush over my palate without any interference from other hops. And underneath the fruit, Riwaka also delivers zings of fresh pineapple and white grapefruit, with only a slightly bitter aftertaste. 

And at 6.4% ABV, it’s so darn drinkable that I don’t think I could ever get tired of tipping back cans of this tropical quencher. As I sit here, I’m already on my 5th can since the release, and my taste buds are still giddier than a kid in a candy store!

If you’re anything like me and can feel burnt out on all the IPAs out there, why not give your palate a breath of fresh air with a taste of Beyond Repair?
