Tasting Lost Cause Brew Co - Skip To The End

"Skip To The End" – A DDH IPA That Skips the Foreplay and Gets Right to the Hops

You know how some IPAs take their sweet time warming up, gently easing you into their bitterness with floral hints and a touch of citrus, like they're trying to seduce your palate over a three-course meal? Yeah, Skip To The End is not that IPA.

Lost Cause Brewing Co. didn’t come to play. They brewed a double dry-hopped IPA that does exactly what it says: skips the build-up and smashes right into your taste buds like it’s double-parked outside your house.

First Sip Vibes:
Boom. Mango. Passionfruit. A slap of dank pine that feels like getting tackled by a fruity Christmas tree. It’s hazy, juicy, and smooth as a power slide across a polished floor in fuzzy socks. You’re immediately like, “Whoa. Okay. We’re doing this.”

Mid-Pint Thoughts:
You start detecting layers — citrus peel doing cartwheels over your tongue, a backbone of tropical bitterness that keeps you humble, and a malt base that’s like a gentle reminder that this beer is, in fact, 8% ABV. This is the kind of IPA that says, "Sit down. Stay awhile. You’re not driving."

Finish:
The finish is crisp but lingers just enough to make you think, “Maybe just one more sip.” Which is a trap. A delicious, hop-forward, surprisingly smooth trap.

Final Verdict:
Skip To The End is the IPA for people who’ve been burned by too many bland brews and are ready to be loved properly. It’s big, bold, and full of character — just like your weirdest friend who somehow always throws the best parties. If you're into hazy IPAs, and especially DDH ones, this is your new go-to. If you're not, this might just convert you.

Pro tip: Pair it with spicy tacos, salty snacks, or your latest existential crisis. It makes everything better.

So do yourself a favor: grab a can (or four), skip to the end of your bad beer choices, and start your happily-ever-hoppy with Lost Cause’s finest.
