Description:
Our Sculpin IPA with Habanero Pepper began as a crazy experiment that’s taken on a life of its own. While its bright fruit notes and hoppy bite has made the original one of our favorites, this version takes that balance of flavors to the next level with the citrusy, floral heat of habaneros. Sculpin are known to sting, but this one’s got a kick. (Description provided by company)

Feeling Hot Hot Hot
Ballast Point Habanero Sculpin pours a clean and crisp looking dark orange with s bubbly foamy head. I get a ton of hops on the nose, with some citrus and pine predominating. Major hop flavor on the front end and some serious heat from the habanero peppers in the finish. It’s probably good, but it’s a little too much for me. Between the bitterness of the hops and the fiery peppers, I need a little sweet to balance it all out.
