Terminal Gravity Brewing Announces The Release of Big Burn Imperial IPA

(Enterprise,Oregon) – We’re happy to announce the continuation of our experimental beer program with our latest addition: Big Burn Imperial IPA.

Originally we we’re set to brew this beer during the month of September- when the boys from Point Blank Distributing in Portland we’re scheduled to hang at the brewery for a couple days. Turned out that Mother Nature wasn’t quite up for that- as much of Wallowa County (and Eastern Oregon) was battling blazes from multiple wild fires.

So after that was all over, and the flames we’re put out by our fearless and hardworking wildland fire crews- it was time to brew some beer- hence the name Big Burn Imperial IPA. With some huge aroma from Mosaic, Simcoe, and Citra hops, Production Manager/Brewer Josh Evans says, “Big Burn takes everything you love in an northwest style IPA and makes it’s bigger”. Coming in at 8.5% and a respectable 80 IBU’s, Big Burn is a remarkably drinkable beer that’s true to style.

You can find Big Burn Imperial IPA in the finest taprooms and pubs in Portland, Bend, SW Washington, Seattle, and Eastern Oregon.

Terminal Gravity Releasing Slick Rock Fresh Hop IPA

September 16th, 2015 - Enterprise, OR - Terminal Gravity Brewing is happy to announce that this Friday (September, 18th) Slick Rock Fresh Hop IPA will hit the Portland market.  Brewed with over 100 lbs, of fresh Simcoe hops, this single batch limited release is one of our favorite beers to make!

We partnered with Carpenter Ranches in Granger Washington; they’ve been growing hops since the late 1800’s, and have some of the finest varieties in the Pacific Northwest.  With large and juicy hop cones, it was a no brainer to drive the 300 miles to snatch up a few hundred pounds of freshly picked Simcoe hops to brew our annual Slick Rock Fresh Hop IPA.

Simcoe hops are unique in that they offer great bittering potential, while also having complex aromatic qualities perfect for NW Style IPA’s.  We’re talking about citrus, pine, and earthy notes that reminded us of the harvest we just participated in.

“Our team at TG has a really good time brewing this beer, says Marketing Manager Kevin Harlander.” Part of the excitement comes in the process and the tight time window we have to get it done.  These hops we’re picked in the morning near Granger Washington, and we raced them back to Wallowa County to get them in the brew by midday.”

Slick Rock Fresh Hop IPA is a NW style IPA that has the rich color of wildflower honey and an aroma of citrus pine, with woodsy and floral undertones.  At 6.1% ABV and just over 65 IBU’s, this IPA is well balanced with a reassuring bitterness that’s sure to please.
