Circle of Hell is the newest entry to cycle back into Adroit Theory's ongoing series of Hazy IPAs, a lineup the Purcellville, Virginia brewery revisits regularly rather than treating as a single fixed recipe. This edition is a Hazy Double IPA, double dry-hopped with Citra, Nelson Sauvin, and Mosaic.
The brewery describes the beer as opaque with juicy aromatics and a soft, pillowy body, the combination of traits that defines the modern hazy style. Nelson Sauvin is the hop worth noting here: it tends to bring a grape-like, white-wine quality that stands apart from the more straightforward citrus and tropical notes typical of Citra and Mosaic, giving this batch a slightly different aromatic angle than a standard hazy.
Adroit Theory's newsletter calls this "the return of a recent release," language that points to a brewery cycling favorites back through rotation rather than retiring them after one run.
Circle of Hell is available now at the Adroit Theory taproom, on draft and in cans.
