Stone Pilot: Loral & Dr. Rudi's Inevitable Adventure Double IPA

Loral hops were release in 2016 and quickly became one of our favorite New varieties. It was highlighted in our Stone hop revolver single ipa series, and with the featured hop in our hugely popular 2017 summer seasonal beer: Stone ghost hammer IPA. Then there's Dr. Rudi , which has been around since 1976. Originally known as a super alpha, this hop brings classic resin and piney notes, which pair it perfectly with the floral citrusy aroma of loral. Traditionalist GenX meets adventurous Millennial. What do they talk about? Nothing, hops don't talk. Together however, they speak. It's apparent that a pairing like this was bound to happen. At Stone we call it inevitable.
