Troon — You Get What You Get (2025)

Technical Details

Tasting Profile

A characteristically opaque, sunset-hued pour from Troon’s cult-favorite hazy program, this Double IPA leans into the brewery’s hop-forward tendencies with a dense, pillow-soft mouthfeel. Expect a vivid rush of tropical fruit on the nose, where ripe mango, pineapple, and juicy peach mingle with bright citrus zest. The palate follows suit, layering nectarous stone fruit and orange pith over a whisper of dank, resinous green hops. Despite the assertive hop load, the finish stays plush and remarkably drinkable, with bitterness held in check by a creamy, low-attenuation body that lets the fruit-forward character take center stage.

Food Pairing

Pair with grilled mahi-mahi tacos dressed in mango-habanero salsa, where the beer’s tropical hop character amplifies the fruit and tames the heat. Alternatively, try alongside a sharp aged cheddar with prosciutto and crusty sourdough, letting the soft, juicy mouthfeel balance the salt and richness.

About Troon Brewing Company

Troon Brewing Company was founded in 2012 in Hopewell, New Jersey, by husband-and-wife team Chris and Maria Henke. The brewery has built its reputation on an uncompromising commitment to traditional Belgian and mixed-fermentation brewing methods, emphasizing patience, craftsmanship, and the use of exceptional ingredients. Troon specializes in farmhouse ales, saisons, and spontaneously fermented beers, often incorporating local and foraged ingredients that reflect the terroir of their New Jersey location.

The brewery operates with a distinctly artisanal approach, brewing small batches and allowing beers to develop naturally over extended aging periods, sometimes in oak barrels. This dedication to time-intensive processes and wild fermentation has earned Troon a devoted following among craft beer enthusiasts who appreciate complexity and authenticity. The Henkes maintain a small-scale operation that prioritizes quality over quantity, with limited distribution that has only enhanced their cult status within the American craft beer community. Their farmhouse-style taproom reflects the rustic, agricultural aesthetic that informs their brewing philosophy, creating an experience that connects drinkers directly to the traditional European brewing heritage that inspires their work.
