Combining powers to celebrate missed anniversaries we teamed up with our friends at McKays Beer Garden to create the most aggressively catty and passion fruity Fieldwork Westcoast IPA to date. To get this beer to closely mimic the most diesel-laden Sauvignon Blanc as possible we paired together the most pungent Nelson and Simcoe hops our noses could select. With just our base Pilsner malt, these two legends of hops, and a whole bunch of thiol-boosting enzymes, we cranked Nelson & Co up to unfounded cattiness levels; resulting in a crisp, clean, and bright Westcoast IPA that is saturated in notes of fresh squeezed passion fruit, Marlborough Sauvignon-esque cat piss, pressed pine needles, diesel fuel vapor, flint, sweet gooseberries, pink guava, and white grapefruit flesh. While all of that sounds like it belongs in a witch's cauldron, we can confirm, it is in fact beyond excellent and an impeccable example of what great things can come from releasing the thiols in these two sultans of stench.

Maybe it's just the mood today or maybe this is really that good, but as someone who genuinely enjoys Nelson hops this thing is absolutely singing with bright and beautiful white grapes, kiwi fruit, and passion fruit.

Bright beautiful gold in the glass with a perfect pillow puff cloud of head.

The nose explodes with the aromas of a white wine tasting at a tropical fruit market.

Taste follows with a juicy white wine note leading into perfectly balanced softly sweet and tenderly tart fruity hop flavors.

And all of it delivered in a perfectly crisp and clean wc ipa package. This is how you make a classic west coast ipa with the latest and greatest juicy hops.
