    Hanger 24 out of Redlands, CA brews an IPA with locally grown Blood Oranges called Essence. Probably one of their best beers.

    A recent one that is pretty solid is Allagash Fluxus 2013 but it's not worth $20 a bottle in my opinion. Try to find it on tap.

    Caldera Vas Deferens makes a pretty tasty BSDA called Vas Deferens with blood orange pulp & zest, with a cringe-inducing label. I'll also endorse Elysian Superfuzz.

    I am one of the three gots if anyone wants to try a bottle of this sweet nectar. I mean it is pretty rare. It was a brewery only release. They even hand wrote bottle numbers on the bottle.

    Is any of this working?

    -1 for Superfuzz
    expecting some hate, but i thought it was a very average pale ale with very minimal orange presence.

    In all seriousness, I would not mind getting a bottle.

    Haha, if you want send me a BM and we can work something out. I am sure we can expand to include a few other things.

    I got to try Funky Buddha's More Moro IPA this week. The nose is pungent blood oranges and has a delicious orange flavor to go with a hoppy finish. I loved it - it's a perfect summertime IPA. They have been sending this around to bars around South FL (maybe other bars in FL too?) and it's also on tap at the brewery. Highly recommended!

    Burnt hickory has a blood orange IPA called Didjits that's absolutely fantastic.

    I'll second that! I was able to bring some back from St. Louis a week ago. Totally amazing.
