Building upon our first collaboration, Real Birds Are Real, Dashbird is our long-awaited second collab with @greencheekbeer. Together we set out to create the modern West Coast IPA we would both want to drink on repeat. The hop bill features Mosaic, Simcoe, Nelson Sauvin, and the star of the show, Nelson Sauvin Hop Kief, a concentrated hop extract from Freestyle Hops that amplifies the aromatics to eleven.
The result is a brilliantly clear, dark yellow pour bursting with citrus, berry, and stone fruit. Bright, crisp, and full of flavor, Dashbird delivers that snappy, dry West Coast bitterness you crave. Honestly, it might be one of the best West Coast IPAs we have ever made.

Pale, slight haze. Medium head. Ok bitterness but oniony, overripe hops. Slight flabbiness to the malts. Not hitting for me.

16 oz can at Paragon, 9/18/25. Unclear golden pour with a fizzy white head. Grapefruit, owner zest, pine. A little bit herbal. Nice flavor profile. Solidly bitter on the finish. Good stuff.
8/8/8.5/8/8

A4 draught, 9/6/25.
Clear, honey-blonde. White head steadily to ring.
Interesting stuff. Dense herbage with bright fresh grass and fresh herbs. Sweaty pine and wood, with no resin or acidity, on the end. White bread-like malt is pretty big, per the series. Clean.
Biscuit, cracker, bread. Bursts of sweetness but very attenuated with a woody, gooseberry and unripe stone fruit character that doesn't work well with the heavy dryness. Thankfully the very low acidity helps mitigate this, but it still needs more softness/sweetness from somewhere.
