7:45 Escalation is a Double IPA from CREW Republic, the Munich brewery founded in 2011 by Mario and Timm. At 8.4% ABV with an original gravity of 18°P, this beer builds on a full, malty foundation layered with tropical fruit character.

The hop bill—Amarillo, Chinook, Columbus and Simcoe—delivers a complex nose of grapefruit, pine and grass, balanced by mango, pineapple and caramel notes on the palate. The interplay between hop bitterness and fruit creates an engaging Imperial IPA experience.

7:45 Escalation earned gold at the World Beer Awards 2023 and bronze in 2022, recognizing CREW Republic's commitment to honest, handcrafted brewing within German purity law standards.
