Secret Handshake Step 5/10 is an Imperial IPA brewed by Kompaan Bier in The Hague, part of their ongoing series where each step showcases a different hop expression. At 10% ABV, this is a bold, assertive IPA that makes no apologies for its strength. Bitterness takes the lead, yet the beer remains approachable despite the alcohol content. Hop additions including Azacca bring fruit and spice to the palate. The 10% ABV reveals itself most on the finish, where a sticky, warming sensation lingers—a reminder of the beer's serious, full-bodied character.
