We teamed up with our friends from Joyride Brewing Company and Cannonball Creek Brewing Company for this three-way West Coast IPA collaboration featuring HBC 586 and our hand selected Mosaic Cryo, Simcoe and Strata hops.

A Superior ipa. Races through and balanced for top performance creation.Thanks for the hookup Jason. Good to try disparate hoppy creations like this.

This one pours a clear golden orange color, with a small head, and lots of lacing.
This smells like pine, marijuana, orange, and grapefruit.
This is a prototypical and spot on take on the style. There’s no real maltiness at all, just a fresh and bitter hop bite – piney, weedy, and spicy, with a nice juicy grapefruit, orange, and melon hop note.
This is light bodied, clean, and super drinkable.
I don’t drink many of this brewery’s non barrel aged stouts/barleywines, but they can clearly do it all well.
