Tree House — King Jjjuliusss IPA

Technische Details

Verkostungsprofil

The nose explodes with intense tropical fruit—mango, papaya, and passionfruit—layered over candied orange peel and a subtle pine resin backbone. On the palate, this double IPA delivers a pillowy soft mouthfeel characteristic of the New England style, with waves of juicy citrus, stone fruit, and floral hop notes. The 8.4% alcohol integrates seamlessly into the lush body. The finish is surprisingly clean despite the heft, leaving lingering impressions of grapefruit pith and a gentle resinous bitterness that invites the next sip without cloying sweetness.

Lebensmittel-Paarung

Pair with spicy Korean fried chicken, where the beer’s fruity sweetness and creamy body temper gochujang heat while hop bitterness cuts through the richness. Alternatively, serve alongside aged cheddar or alpine-style cheeses—the beer’s tropical fruit notes complement nutty, crystalline flavors while the substantial body matches the cheese’s intensity.

About Tree House Brewing Company

Tree House Brewing Company was founded in 2011 in Brimfield, Massachusetts, by four homebrewers who had been perfecting their craft since 2008. What began as a modest operation on a small farm—named after the actual tree house on the property—has evolved into one of America’s most acclaimed craft breweries. After relocating to Monson in 2013 and subsequently to a purpose-built 53,000 square foot facility in Charlton in 2017, Tree House has maintained an uncompromising approach that sets it apart in the industry. The brewery operates as a non-distributing establishment, selling exclusively on-site, where customers regularly queue for an hour or more to purchase their sought-after beers. This deliberate choice reflects a commitment to quality and freshness over mass distribution. Tree House has earned recognition from Untappd, which ranks it among the top ten breweries in the United States, as well as accolades from Beer Advocate, Forbes, the Boston Globe, and Thrillist. The brewery’s reputation rests on its exceptional brewing standards and distinctive approach to craft beer, drawing devoted enthusiasts to rural Massachusetts from across the country.
