Meet Extrovert IPA
Left Hand Brewing Co. Releases New American IPA
LONGMONT, CO • April 18, 2016 – Meet
Extrovert IPA. This April, Left Hand is launching a new
American IPA,
bringing together a blend of tropical, fruit-forward hops with a
malty backbone. Brewed to be enjoyed with friends, Left Hand’s new IPA
features a blend of hops and a pleasant, lingering bitterness with a dry
finish. Extrovert IPA will join
Introvert Session IPA as a year-round offering in six-pack and draft.
Crafted
on Left Hand’s new 7 bbl pilot system, Extrovert is the result of over 6
months of development to brew a balanced American IPA that was the
perfect complement
to Introvert. “It’s a very crowded market, so we knew we needed to set ourselves apart.” states
Matt Thrall, Director of Brewing, “Our approach was to develop a recipe that wasn’t just hoppy water, but to create a well-built IPA with complexity and depth.”

With
a hopped up attitude brewed to stimulate serendipity, Extrovert is
assertive with a big personality of 75 IBUs, yet reveals layers of
complexity for the seasoned
IPA fan. Extrovert IPA is dry hopped at one pound per barrel with a hop
blend that plays well together, consisting of Jarrylo, Cascade, and
Comet. Jarrylo is a Pacific Northwest hop, full of nuance with subtle
stone fruit notes. Cascade brings citrus while
Comet adds tropical flavors and pineapple notes, and is Extrovert &
Introvert’s shared hop variety. In addition, rye and acidulated malt
give the beer a dry mouthfeel and distinct bite. The lasting result is a
hop melody like a basket of fruit with mouthwatering
notes of pineapple, mango, and orange blossom, balanced by sweet
biscuity malt. Extrovert finishes with a pleasant lingering bitterness.
Extrovert IPA will be released in Colorado beginning the week of Monday, April 14th and is expected to be available across Left Hand’s 36 state footprint by late May. Release events will kick off on Thursday, April 28th with a Denver release at Freshcraft, and a Longmont release at the brewery’s Tasting Room on April 29th. With Extrovert and Introvert in your fridge, Left Hand has a little something for everyone, with all beersonalities covered. Explore your Beersonality – coming this May!
