Shreddy Krueger is the West Coast version of our 5.5% house IPA Master Shredder. Yes. You heard correctly, the West Coast version. Shredder Krueger was the alternate name for our beloved Master Shredder during its infancy. This mash up was a request/idea that our Lead Cellarman/Assistant Brewer Josh(aka Jehou) came up with. Josh, like most of us here at The Veil, dig that cleaner West Coast style yeast profile and a tiny bit of bitterness from time to time. We thought it would be a fun experiment and we are happy we did it! We started by brewing a small batch on our new pilot system of the original recipe of Master Shredder, then instead of pitching our house ale yeast we use for majority of our hoppy beers, we pitched San Diego Super yeast(a common yeast used in production of West Coast IPAs). Bright amber appearance with the most subtle bitterness, fresh citrus peel, stone fruit flesh, and slight pine character.

Canned on date not readable. Poured into a Samuel Adams Perfect Pint.

A: Slightly hop hazy light amber with 2-finger white frothy head with good retention and copious lacing.

S: Pine, melon, red grapefruit, light floral, honeysuckle herbal component also

T: Heavy bitterness evident throughout but especially in the sharp finish. Flavor is mostly pine and grapefruit with another herbal honeysuckle note in the aftertaste.

M: Light body with high carbonations. D very dry finish accentuated by the bitterness.

O: High aroma and flavor for a 5.5% beer. A little more body would be welcome to fill out the beer a little more and improve drinkability, but this is a fine beer just the same.

Pours a hazy light orange with soft, thick head.

Smell is fruity and a bit floral with notes of lemon, grapefruit, pine and peach.

Taste is fruity and a bit dabk with a solid bitterness. Notes of grapefruit, melon, pine and some sharpish resin.

Mouthfeel is medium, well carbonated.

Overall, a very nice IPA, slightly sharp on the finish.
