This collaboration is a liquid representation of the Pacific Northwest craft beer community; a cross-border collaboration between Seattle’s Fremont Brewing and Portland’s Breakside Brewing. We decided to brew this beer for Seattle Beer Week and will release another beer for Portland Beer Week… stay tuned. This bromance beer is named Back To The Future IPA as a nod to the futuristic hops used in each of our releases; Jarylo and Equinox in Seattle and Azaaca and Ella in Portland. So, why did you collaborate? Thanks for asking. We came up with the idea to collaborate while traveling through the Mexican desert on a vision quest search of the little-known but potent Chulo Berry. Although the Chulo Berry eluded us that trip, we decided to dedicate what remains of our very existence to finding that damn berry. And since that idea creeped us out, we decided to brew these beers and chill out. So, pop the top, pour yourself a little adventure and Chill Out as you ride Back To The Future on this magic hop carpet ride!

On tap at Tin Bucket. Pours a hazy gold with small frothy white head that lasts. The aroma is citrus and dank. Medium mouth, pine, herbal, light biterness, good. Great Scott!

On tap at Breakside Milwaukee, pours a clear golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out skunky herbal notes, weed, and piney hops. Flavour is too skunky and weed-like for me, with pot-like herbal hops. Too skunky and vegetal-like. Surprisingly weak for a collaboration between these two big names. Not a fan.

Bomber shared at a tasting, 6/8/15. Hazy orange, thin creamy white head, good retention. Aroma of canned fruit, citrus, tropical fruit, caramel. The taste is tropical fruit, dank, pine, earth, citrus, oatmeal, nuts. Medium bodied, strong lingering bitterness.

Very cool bomber. Pours a clear orange hue with a medium white head. A big tropical nose, some biscuit and herbal tea. Meaty big IPA, bitterness, pine, some fresh citrus. The overall package is really flavorful with zesty peppery citrus dominating. Very nice IPA. The lingering finish is awesome and makes this an elite brew.
