It's a party, and all your taste buds are invited. In our neverending quest for the perfect IPA, we went a little out of the box using a sexy new hop from New Zealand called Nectaron & some old friends, Citra & Simcoe. We removed some of the complex malt profile we often use, going full New School w/ the malt bill. What does all this actually mean? It means it's time to party!

Raul loves Kern River - that much is sure. That being said, he’s more real than Kendrick Lamar. And right here, we have beer that is quaffable, but it misses the mark like a Tiger Woods chip shot after he took a few Ambiens. It’s almost like a new brewery came out and really wanted to nail a “juice bomb” IPA because that’s what the newbs holler for. It’s borderline a Hazy/Juice IPA. Not cool. Just tropical, tropical, tropical like the dude sitting on the beach at the end of “Office Space.” This is Van Gogh when he doesn’t have a lot of desire.

Good day, my children.
