One of Magnolia's most-loved and asked-for beers; they've been brewing this over-the-top IPA since 1999. Proving Ground IPA is built around English Maris Otter malt and fermented with English ale yeast, but then packed with a powerful hop charge like an American IPA, including big dry hop character. American hops dominate but Maris Otter comes through with a malty counterpoint in a way not often found in this style of beer. Pair with hot wings or spicy green curry.
