An IPA that washes over you like a sea of...of flavor…? Idk, man, it’s a hazy IPA. Don’t get all hung up on it. We honestly didn’t change too much! Our process for IPA production is constantly evolving, though, so we did make some minor tweaks. We bumped the ABV back up just a touch (from 7.0% to 7.6%), smoothed out the body, and very lightly dropped the IBUs a bit more. The results are pretty dang phenomenal!

Mashed with a base of Riverbend 2-Row and 4 different kinds of Wheat to give an amped up and luscious body, hit on the hot side with Hallertauer Blanc, dry-hopped with more Hallertau Blanc, and then double dry-hopped with Vic Secret, Strata, and El Dorado Cryo.

Notes of pineapple upside-down cake, the perfect glass of dry Sauvignon Blanc, Lil Cuties Clementine wedges, creamy Orange Julius smoothies, Haribo gummy bears, and dried mango wedges. It’s more fruit-forward and juicy than the last batch and that makes us VERY excited. Oh, HELL to the yes, y’all.

Put together with a lot of supporting hop flavors might just be the key to making a down-played hazy IPA. The collection of Vic Secret, Strata,and El Dorado hops give Dssolvr an edge on haze.

Pouring a dense goldenrod color, Bones and Waves emits a strong and fruity bouquet of fruit, field and fauna as its creamy white froth begins to form. As its creamy sweetness washes the tongues, a foundation of cereal, shortcake, coconut and vanilla soothe the senses ahead of a racy, bright and tangy taste of lemon, orange, white grapefruit, passionfruit and white grape; all candied and honey-dipped in their design. A rise of bitterness brings a taste of tea leaf, verbena, and sassafras as an herbal gin-like botanical balance in finish.

Medium bodied and smoothly bitter, the session is herbal and stemmy with a tea-like finish and a bitter-sweet balance.
