What do you get when the largest beer store in Chicago, and arguably Illinois, teams up with one of our favorite Michigan breweries to hop-up a smooth and drinkable pale ale?<\/p>\n

\"hopfinder\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Say hello to Saugatuck, and Binny’s, Hopfinder.<\/p>\n

According to Binny’s website<\/a> a handful of store managers pow-wowed with the brewers at Saugatuck recently to create Hopfinder.<\/p>\n

We took Saugatuck’s Pathfinder Pale Ale and added a boat load of hops to it in the form of Citra, Simcoe, and Nelson Sauvin. We then dry hopped it with hard to find Mosaic hops.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

No release date has been set but Binny’s does note there will be a limited amount of bottles to go around.<\/p>\n

I’ve had Pathfinder before and it’s a maltier version of the summer-friendly session IPA’s, like Founders All Day IPA or Lagunitas’ DayTime. I wondered, at the time, what Pathfinder would taste like if it were a bit more hop-forward. It seems I won’t have to wonder much longer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
