Heaps of toasty Vienna and Munich malts are used to create a bold, malty wort.

Cold fermentation with plus an extended lagering time helps create the perfect dark lager for winter sipping.

Style of Beer:
Double Dry-Hopped Hazy IPA
Riverbend Malt(s) Used:
Cumberland Pilsner (2 Row Barley Malt); Appalachian Wheat (Wheat Malt); Hull and Oats (Oat Malt); Great Chit (2 Row Barley Malt)
Tasting Notes:
After Hurricane Helene ravaged Western North Carolina in September 2024, DSSOLVR launched Higher Calling, a collaborative Hazy IPA project to raise funds for those affected. DSSOLVR provided a base recipe, a list of suppliers providing donated/discounted ingredients (including Riverbend!), and a label template, then invited breweries from across the country to brew the beer and donate 100% proceeds to the NC Craft Brewers Fund.
DSSOLVR chose to brew a Double Dry-Hopped version with 100% Riverbend malts. Hull and Oats provide a soft mouthfeel and Cumblerland Pilsner gives the light malt backbone for the generous amount of mosaic dry-hopping, with otes of tropical citrus, mango, and passion fruit with every sip.
When/Where Available:
While this beer is no longer available at the brewery, you can still find 4-packs to go at local craft beer and bottle shops across the region!
