    If you enjoyed Moonraker beers like Yojo, Electric Lettuce or Holy Hermit..... The former MR Head Brewer Zach Frasher is starting his own brewery in Lincoln, CA. Partnering with Russ from Old Town Pizza



    Should be good.

    I don't think that is "LEGALLY" possible....lol... Don't want a C&D.....

    But I am sure they will have many Hazy IPAs in the 6 to 7% range. Probably at least 1 with a similar hop blend as YOJO. Galaxy, Mosaic, Simcoe, Citra, and CTZ

    ++++

    Looks like the first COLLAB may already being happening with Urban Roots in Sacramento per their IG story..... Hops: Mo, Sim & Ekuanot cryo. 15% Maris .. 149 degrees F... 8 to 8.5%... sounds like a DIPA.

    Definitely aware Moonraker owns the name and recipe, but I just have a feeling Zach will produce similar or better quality hazy ipa than what Moonraker has. I'm very excited.

    Agreed. I think everyone in Sac/Roseville/Lincoln is excited.

    But this is a much smaller operation. Looks like draft and crowlers only to start. Then dialing in the recipes on a smaller scale.

    Tanks went in yesterday. More on the way.

    First local COLLAB. With Urban Roots. "Urban SLICE" DIPA..... West Coast... Pretty Good.

    I have every confidence in that beer being good, given it's progenitors...but man these unoriginal logo rip-offs are getting old.

    Getting closer. Zach F mentions November for opening date target in the comments.



    On a side note OTPizza Lincoln just opened the new location right next door to Slice. Very cool place with a great tap list.

    Damn, that’s tomorrow. I could take off work and fly up. But I just did Revision. Stocked up for now. Plus I’m thinking of doing Revolution on Saturday.

    Went to the "Soft opening" on Sunday. Announced via IG and FB. Super casual. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Good vibe.

    Very small space for seating/standing, couple TVs with NFL on.

    [​IMG]

    Beer was great, met with the standards you would expect from OG Moonraker quality.

    Original Juice IPA
    [​IMG]

    Right now they have Crowlers to go. They will also fill glass growlers.

    [​IMG]

    Looking forward to the next few weeks/months as they get more variety of beer styles going. It may take a little will due to the very small size of brewing capacity right now. Overall, a nice start.

    Official Grand Opening to Public today at 3pm.
