Five Boroughs Brewing Winter IPA

Five Boroughs Winter IPA

Embrace the flavors of the season with Winter IPA—a festive, hop-driven ale crafted for colder weather, yet bursting with juicy brightness. Brewed with a blend of citrus-forward hops and softened with oats and specialty malts, this beer balances warming richness and refreshing clarity.

• ABV: ~6.8%  

• Malts: 2‑Row base, flaked oats, Carared, a touch of Carafa II for depth  

• Hops: Citra, Cascade, Comet, Simcoe — delivering aromas of pineapple, mango, tropical citrus, and a hint of pine  

• Appearance: Hazily golden, reminiscent of apple juice with a soft, pillowy head 

• Flavor & Mouthfeel: Creamy and lush thanks to the oats, with a tropical fruit-forward hop profile that carries through to a crisp finish. The roasty malt tones add just enough backbone to ground the brightness.  

• Food Pairings: Great with holiday dishes, roasted meats, citrus-glazed seafood, spiced desserts, or even as a standout on its own.
