Grapefruit Endpoint
This strong and balanced Imperial IPA will be adding a member to the family this spring. Renegade Grapefruit Endpoint is scheduled to be released in April. While Endpoint boasts complex hop character, many are surprised to find that it is a single-hopped beer using only Summit hops. Summit is a versatile hop that is appropriately used in the bittering, flavor, aromatic, and dry hop additions. Of the many flavors that Summit hops produce, grapefruit is a predominant one. Renegade’s brewers experimented with different one-offs for the popular triple IPA. Some included different yeast strains, single hop varieties, and other flavor experimentation such as mango. When Renegade Grapefruit Endpoint was released in small-batch draft it was the clear winner.

To get the perfect amount of fresh grapefruit flavor, this brew adds natural grapefruit in two ways. Initially, the brew will appear to be like any other Endpoint brew until it reaches attenuation-the point in which yeast has finished fermenting sugars. At this time the brewers will add natural grapefruit rind to bring out bitterness and whole grapefruit sections to bring out the juicy flavor already created by the hops. The end product is a dangerously drinkable and all natural 11% IPA.

In the search for a complex and delicious beverage, this is the Endpoint.

Renegade Grapefruit Endpoint will be available in limited quantities in every Renegade market: Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, Wisconsin, and Arizona.
