Resin

Resin, Sixpoint Brewery, Brooklyn, NY
(Imperial/Double IPA, Rated 97)

For this beer, the brewery zeroed in on the the hop cone structure and identified a sticky, golden resin when the hop is at peak maturity. A very citrus hopped beer with a smooth, yet powerful kick at 9.1% abv.

The picture is in front of the Milwaukee Art Museum, an architectural landmark on the shores of Lake Michigan. Designed by Santiago Calatrava, this amazing building is highlighted by a moveable sunshade with a 217-foot wingspan that opens twice a day. Here the wingspan provides wings for this Sixpoint beer.
