A Note on This Beer
Breakside Brewing goes full-on classy with their limited-edition Pathfinder Gin Barrel-Aged DIPA. They enlisted Ransom Distillery’s Old Tom Gin barrels from Pacult’s Top 75 Spirits List to imbue every drop of this brew with top-shelf botanical cocktail-like charisma fit for a pinkies-out, black-tie soiree.
For all you gin fans who feel overlooked when it comes to Barrel-Aged beers, Breakside taps into rare oak-aged style Old Tom Gin barrels to dial in a botanical elixir of juniper and eucalyptus. After six months of barrel-aging, they dry-hop Pathfinder to add the citrusy and floral character of American hops and enhance its distinct herbal evergreen notes. The result is an 8.7% ABV, lemon peel spiked, juicy gin sipper with a dash of honey and a bitter end.
With a 4.2 on Untappd, fans like @RobV agree Pathfinder is “worth the adventure.” Just when you thought you’d tasted everything, Pathfinder brings a new flavor spectrum in this meticulously-crafted gin-soaked hop cocktail -- sure to inspire contemplation at your next bottle share.
