Barren Hill Tavern & Brewery‘s head brewer Dave Wood: Here is a scaled down version of a session IPA I just brewed for Barren Hill. I love this beer because I am both a hophead and a fan of session beers. I would much rather enjoy several pints with friends than just one or two big beers. Most of the time that I am drinking, I want to keep my wits about me. Enjoy my Itty Bitty Hop Bomb Session IPA!
