A beer to celebrate Craft Beer Garden Festival 2025!

In collaboration with SOMA. Hops sponsored by Yakima Chief Hops and yeast sponsored by AEB Brewing.

With our Catalan pals, we brought “something” recreational from the future - a thick Hazy DIPA with juicy mouthfeel! Thanks to the terroir-driven brilliance of Freestyle Hops, we loaded this one with the finest New Zealand varietals of Nelson & Nectaron - amplifying aroma, juiciness and that signature Southern Hemisphere twist.

Can at home. Hazy pale yellow color, medium sized white head. Aroma and flavor are lightly malts, sweetish, sweetish hoppy. Can't really say I get more distinctively. It's one of so so many NEIPA's if you ask me.

Can. A mild to medium haze on this yellowish gold beer, small and short lived pale cream colour head. Light palate, a little dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Light bodied pale malts, a forward creamy sweetness. A mild savoury skunk, very slightly bitter. Crisp cooling pine. Slightly ripe stone fruits, mild Nelson grape if you are seeking it out. Light and semi dry finish. It's fine, was expecting something a bit brighter from this hop combo but, its quite drinkable.

Sampled Cool Head Craft Beer Garden 2025.
The beer poured hazy and deep yellow, pineapple juice looks.
Sweet tropical fruits, pineapple, juiciness. No bitterness, touch of NZ hops. Decent.

Sweetish, a bit stuffy, tropical fruity and citrusy with some grapes, pine and stuffy yeastiness. A bit unbalanced
