A collaborative IPA brewed with our great friend Tim “Pop Pop” Clifford of Sante Adairius Rustic Ales in Santa Cruz / Capitola, California. We wrote this IPA recipe and conceptualized the label during quarantine, separated by a thousand miles, while standing in our walk-in cooler staring at our new hop selections. Brewed with “Pops” of kettle hop additions at 60, 10, 5 and 0 minutes and dextrose for that SARA-style bitterness and dryness but dry-hopped with an excessive amount of Galaxy, Citra and Simcoe hops, we merged what we both love into this SARA-style IPA brewed by Shared.

poured from a 16oz can into a willi becher pint glass. pours a hazy bright yellow with a finger a half of soapy white foam head. smells of dank hops and tropical fruits. to me, the Galaxy dominates the nose on this one. taste is just about as dank and tropical as the nose with a slightly bitter (but pleasantly so) finish. a fairly full mouthfeel makes for an extremely smooth and very satisfying IPA. i know this is “SARA-style” but the aromas of this IPA are almost Tree House-esque with that perfume-like smell wafting over the glass. an excellent quarantine-style distant collaboration.
