166. Sun King (Indianapolis, IN) - Hop Tickler

“Hop Tickler is a crushable American IPA with Citra hop character and a touch of wheat.”

Surprisingly light for a Sun King offering. Bright flavors of citrus, stone fruit, and pineapple, with a crisp smooth finish. Wasn’t sure I liked it at first, but now it’s growing on me. As I get into the second one, I’m finding that the 6.2% alcohol is sneaking up on me a little bit—in a very nice way. It’s been a minute since I was impressed with something from Sun King, but I’m digging this one.
