1. Troegs Independent Brewing – Perpetual IPA
Nestled in the sweet surroundings of Hershey, Troegs Independent Brewing crafts the Perpetual IPA, a beacon of hoppy bliss. This Imperial Pale Ale combines a crisp and vibrant hop flavor with notes of citrus and pine, balanced beautifully by a robust malt backbone. It’s a perpetual favorite for those seeking a classic IPA experience, making it a perfect companion for your Easter feast.
2. Pizza Boy Brewing – Frontside Lipside
From the creative cauldrons of Pizza Boy Brewing in Enola comes the Frontside Lipside, a West Coast-style IPA that’s as bold and adventurous as an Easter morning egg hunt. With its bitter bite and aromatic presence of tropical fruits and pine, this brew is a thrilling ride for the palate. It’s an excellent choice for those who like their Easter with a side of exhilarating flavor.
3. South County Brewing Co. – Liminal Moment
Spring is a time of transition, and what better way to embrace it than with South County Brewing’s Liminal Moment? This hazy New England-style IPA, brewed in the quiet town of Fawn Grove, captures the essence of spring with its juicy, hop-forward profile, bursting with notes of mango, pineapple, and citrus. It’s a smooth, creamy beer that balances bitterness with refreshing zest, perfect for sipping on a sunny Easter afternoon.
4. Ever Grain Brewing Co. – Joose Juicy IPA
Easter is all about joy and rejuvenation, and Ever Grain Brewing Co.’s Joose Juicy IPA is here to uplift your spirits. This New England-style IPA, hailing from Camp Hill, is a celebration of all things hoppy and fruity. With a less bitter but flavor-packed profile, it offers a juicy burst of fruitiness that’s akin to discovering the most colorful egg in the Easter egg hunt.
