Trillium Brewing Co. Releases Keytar Bear Double IPA

Trillium Brewing Co. in Canton and Boston, Massachusetts has announced the release of another one of its highly sought after hazy Double IPAs.

Keytar Bear, a DIPA brewed with lactose, wildflower honey and vanilla, is another beer at the forefront of the milkshake IPA trend -- beers that eschew traditional IPA bitterness in favor of juicy hop aromas and flavors and a lip-smacking sweetness from various adjuncts.

The beer is available now in 4-packs from the brewery's Canton and Boston locations. The full release from the brewery is below.

NEW RELEASE: KEYTAR BEAR DOUBLE IPA

Our latest Double IPA serves as a tribute to the beloved Boston based busker, Keytar Bear. Known to many Bostonians for his welcoming perma-smile and funky 80’s Prince covers, a Keytar Bear sighting is a surefire way to brighten the day, or at the very least your commute on the T! 

Keytar Bear Double IPA is brewed with local wildflower honey and a little lactose, then conditioned on vanilla beans, and presents a milky haze of deep orange straw. Intense aromas of orange oil and pineapple leap out of the glass. Flavors of tangerine, slight marshmallow, a whiff of coconut cream and rich Madagascar vanilla bean lead the palate and meld into a tropical profile that hints at piña colada. Full bodied with a creamy mouthfeel and soft back end bitterness, Keytar Bear is an instant Boston classic!  1 case limit, $22.20 per 4 pack. Available at both breweries.
