Jeremiah Zimmer & Jude La Rose

Cofounders, Hop Butcher for the World

The reputation they have built is for the juiciest sort of hazy IPAs, squeezing the most out of a changing selection of hops. Our own blind- review panel has found some Hop Butcher gems. Their Halogen Farm IPA scored a 98 out of 100, while their Neon Green Relish and The Jewels double IPAs both scored 97s. If there are common threads running through those, they include an intensely juicy character that is nonetheless balanced—yes they’re sweet, but round, and bitterness is not forgotten—and an embrace of unconventional hops such as Vic Secret or Sabro, which provide surprise notes such as cucumber, herbs, juniper, or coconut. Jeremiah & Jude are not brewing the same-old tropical juice bombs.
