Buffalo Hump 1840 IPA
Named for the Comanche chief Potsanaquahip of the Penataka band, this fierce IPA remains true to the American brewing spirit, delivering lasting hop flavor and character. Buffalo Hump led the Great Raid of 1840 in retaliation for the Texan settlers’ betrayal under a white flag in San Antonio at the Council House Fight. Brewed w/ Franco-Belge Pale malts, hopped with four full-blooded varieties of American hops and fermented w/ our favorite Belgian strain.

While we have a thriving, growing homebrew community in Texas and here in San Antonio, we realize not everyone knows the difference between a hydrometer and thermometer.

OG: |
Original Gravity, the starting density of the liquid before fermentation, relative to water which is 1.000. Values given both in Specific Gravity and degrees Plato.
|

Final Gravity, as dissolved sugars are converted into alcohol during fermentation, the density drops closer to that of water. The difference between the two (OG-FG) is used to calcualte alcohol content.
