A collision of intention and entropy, brewed in collaboration with There Does Not Exist. We layered Citra, Citra Cryo, Simcoe, Simcoe Cryo, Nelson, Nectaron, and Cascade Cryo into a lean, driven West Coast frame. Bright citrus rind, ripe grapefruit, and white grape skins flicker across the nose, riding on a backbone of firm resin and pine sap. The Cryo hops sharpen the edges—energetic, taut, and razor-clean—while Nectaron and Nelson stretch the arc toward tropical tension. Beneath it all, a lean Pilsner malt base hums, never in the way. Expect a drink that demands attention—clear, biting, hop-intense—but with shape, balance, and intention. It’s not just an object in your glass—it’s one that stares back.

Had Foreign Object poured from pint can, no date, gift from my little brother, into nonic pint.
Pours light, straw gold with perfect clarity and huge bubbly near-white head, with very good retention, leaving chunky rings of lace down the glass. Aromas of biting lime, sweet berries and a little resin off pour, then some pilsner malt and hop spice aromas, with big white wine grape aroma and finally some orange and sweet stone fruit aromas as warms. On tasting, begins sweet pear, with immediate herbal bitterness, which carries over mild pilsner malt into white wine grape, and the with the wine grape into a long, surprisingly non-dry, refreshing, moderately bitter finish.
Wonderful aroma, but otherwise a surprisingly simple, sweet beer, especially for the hop bill, and also lacking a classic West Coast finish, yet still tasty.

Can poured into a Mountain Rambler Brewery pint glass
A: Pours golden straw yellow with a frothy off white head that settles to a firm layer and leaves a little light lacing.
S: Citrus zest, resinous pine, a bit grassy and herbal, underlying mix of exotic, tropical, and stone fruit, biscuity slightly grainy malt, and just a touch of light caramel and honey sweetness.
T: Zesty citrus, lemon, grapefruit, and orange, resinous pine, exotic, tropical, and stone fruit, pineapple, passion fruit, gooseberry, peach, apricot, white grape, mango, and guava, a bit grassy, subtle lightly dank herbal notes, biscuity slightly grainy malt, and a touch of light caramel honey sweetness.
M: Medium body, moderate carbonation, crisp.
O: Well done proper Westy as you'd expect from a collab between these two.

Collab with TDNE (There Does Not Exist, for those in the know!)
West coastie from CM + TDNE? Of course it’s good! Light aroma with some floral hop notes. I detect a slight minerality on the sip along with some guava, is it? Enjoyable as expected.
