1 / 7
There’s no way to really measure “hoppiness.” The term can refer to the aroma of a beer or the bitterness delivered by the specific hops used early in the boil. You can look at IBUs (International Bittering Units) for a general idea of hop bitterness, but that doesn’t really tell the whole story. We decided to sniff and sample our way through plenty of hopped-up monsters to give you 7 your palate will both love and fear.
