IT'S-A ME
Source Farmhouse Brewery

It’s-A Me is a delicious, hazy, double dry hopped IPA fermented with a special, fruit-forward @omegayeast strain called Sundew.

Sundew is an exciting, new, genetically modified yeast strain that was developed to emphasize the desirable notes in modern fruity hops.

This was accomplished by targeting a parental yeast strain of Belgian origin known for cranking out fruit-forward esters (think ripe stone fruits, passion fruit, pear, strawberry) and then splicing out the gene responsible for producing the spicy, phenolic notes often characteristic of classic Belgian styles.

In other words, it delivers all of the juicy, ripe, fruit flavors you want in a hazy IPA without the clove and Belgian spice character.

Riffing with the fruit forward flavor profile, we hopped this beer with Strata in the whirlpool and then hit it with a double dose of dry hopping during active fermentation with Motueka & Cryo Pop.

We get notes of tropical passion fruit, juicy strawberry, ripe peaches, sweet pear, nectarines, key lime, soft melon, and freshly squeezed OJ.
