An all new Hazy IPA with ‘Pineapple Express’ inspired terpenes.
For this one, we took a ton of Galaxy hops (surprise), bringing in their big citrus and tropical fruit character, complemented with a healthy addition of Amarillo for some added tangerine and melon. Then we took it to another dimension: we added a dose of @abstraxhops botanically-derived, cannabis-inspired BrewGas terpenes (contains no THC or CBD) modeled after Pineapple Express for even more tropical dankness. The result is a moderately dry, citrus forward, and dank journey to a whole new world of hoppiness.

Opaque, hop burn and some pale fruit hop stuff. Low malt and it needs to be higher, the balance feels a bit off.

On tap at Threefold, pours a cloudy yellow with a small white head. Aroma is full of pot, as expected, with plenty of dank hops that blend in well. Flavour is a pot bomb, with dank hops and terpenes galore without too much hopburn. Still pretty abrasive and not something I want to drink, but if you’re gonna do this new trendy style, it’s not bad.

Poured from 473mL can (pkg 2025/09/02). Cloudy blonde with small white head. Nice terpene aroma. Taste is very chalky with melon hops, hop burn, and some terpenes. Disappointing.
