Back in North Carolina, Hoppy visited Wilmington Brewing. They opened their doors in 2014 and opened their new taproom, The Venue, next door to the brewery, in January 2022. They have since opened a second brewery in Wilmington, named Savard Beer & Board, in June of this year.
While there, Hoppy enjoyed a Tropical Lightning IPA. It is described as a West Coast IPA, and it clocks in at 7.4% ABV, 75 IBU.
