More information about Schoppe Bräu Holy Shit Endboss Ale
If you thought that Holy Shit Ale (a Double IPA) from Schoppe was the pinnacle, you absolutely have to try the Endboss! Surpassing your own fantastic beer is an art that not many can master. Thorsten Schoppe, however, is someone who can pull off such stunts with ease.
The Holy Shit Ale is a hop-intensive Double IPA with an alcohol content of 10.0%. Holy Shit Endboss is its master and makes it look like a linnet in comparison. The Endboss is a powerful Triple IPA with an incredible 12.0% alcohol content and is not for beginners when it comes to taste. From a purely visual point of view, the beast looks very relaxed: a strong amber hue with a beautiful copper shimmer and a small, airy head.
The aroma already hints at the power of the final boss. A complex framework of various aromas builds up on the nose: Malt, caramel and roasted aromas meet spicy hops and a whole lot of fruit. The first sip presents the mighty figure of the final boss: a powerful body with plenty of sweetness and bitterness. At first, a velvety aroma of melt-in-the-mouth caramel envelops the palate, with the taste of dried plums and a hint of roasted grain. Then the hops follow and spread out a fan of tropical fruits. Mango, passion fruit and papaya meet pink grapefruit and spicy pine resin. A crisp bitterness skilfully rounds off the aromatic spectacle.

Real beer instead of mass-produced goods Behind the simple name lies a true avant-gardist: Thorsten Schoppe caused a sensation in the beer world years ago and virtually helped lift the craft beer movement out of its cradle. At some point, the inspired brewer had had enough of large-scale brewing and turned to his craft roots and the original art of brewing. Kettle instead of computer was the motto that ultimately led to Thorsten starting his own thing. Since then, the humorous motto "hops, malt, and muscle grease" has applied, perfectly describing the small-scale...
