Tioga‑Sequoia’s Hoppy Trails variety pack is basically a guided tour through the brewery’s hop‑forward identity, anchored by their most iconic IPA: General Sherman. It’s the flagship West Coast IPA—bright, resinous, citrus‑driven, and brewed with Simcoe, Mosaic, and Citra hops. Sherman is the benchmark for hop lovers, and it sets the tone for the rest of the pack.
What makes this box especially fun is the expansion of the Sherman “family.” The Shermanator is a double West Coast IPA that cranks up the intensity—bigger body, higher ABV, and a bold hop punch that leans dank and piney. DDH Sherman (Double Dry‑Hopped) takes the original profile and layers on extra aroma: more citrus oils, more floral lift, more hop saturation without extra bitterness. If you love the Sherman IPA but want it louder or hazier, these two variants scratch that itch beautifully.
The only outlier—by name, not by vibe—is El Cap, an imperial hazy IPA that brings soft tropical fruit, a pillowy mouthfeel, and a juicy hop profile. It’s the smoothest and most modern‑leaning beer in the lineup, offering a break from the sharper West Coast edges. Together, these four beers make Hoppy Trails a genuinely well‑curated hop sampler: classic, experimental, bold, and hazy all in one box.
If you like hops, this variety pack is absolutely going to make you hoppy happy. It’s a Fresno‑born adventure through some of Tioga‑Sequoia’s best hop expressions—and a great way to compare how different brewing techniques (double dry‑hopping, imperializing, West Coast vs. hazy) shape the final beer in your glass.
