Imagine if a traditional American IPA met a crisp Czech style pilsner. We went back to the drawing board to please all of you hop lovers (and possibly make new converts) out there. This crisp copper beauty is the result of years of R+D. It is brewed with a combination of malts and hops that say American IPA, but fermented cold with our house lager strain. This combination lets a blend of American and German hops shine without confusion.

12/26/16....Pours mostly clear copper with light layer of white foam. Light grainy nose. Citrus. Clean crisp taste. Slightly watery mouthfeel. Light citrus. Thinner mouthfeel. Nails the style for sure.

Draft at the brewery tap room, quick review from notes.
One of the more solid offerings at Motor Row.
Dark gold, bright clarity, dense fluffy head, lasting lacing.
Aroma is grassy with a solid dose of citrus peel.
Crackery pils malt, earthy hop bitterness, hint of citrus pith and peel.
Clean and crisp, dry finish, easily drinkable. Light to medium bodied with ample carbonation.
Overall a nice unique offering that i'd order again if it were on tap around town.

Great beer -- reminds of a chewier FIrestone Pivo. Nicely bodied, rounded flavor, clean hop finish. Will definitely get again.

India Pale Lager. Clear Medium Amber Color, thin head and has a hoppy citrus smell. A grapefruit taste at first but not overboard with low carbonation and it finished very nice. Served in a Tulip at perfect temperature. A winner
