Sometimes a beer name writes itself. Big, bold, and unapologetically old-school, OMFG is our brewer’s love letter to the resin-soaked West Coast IPAs that started it all. Think clear, copper-hued liquid gold with an off-white crown of foam that screams classic from the first pour.
Built on a sturdy base of Certified Sustainable Pilsner Malt, Carawheat, Chit Malt, Weyermann Carared, Rye Malt, and Wheat Malt, this beast brings a touch of sweetness and colour to carry the weight of all those hops. And oh boy… the hops. CTZ (Columbus, Tomahawk, Zeus), Centennial, Centennial Dynaboost, and Cascade tag-team to deliver an absolute freight train of pine, resin, citrus peel, and dankness.
On the nose, caramel malt collides with pine and sticky resin. The palate kicks off with chewy caramel and biscuit before hops storm through in waves of resin, citrus, and tongue-coating bitterness. The finish is bold, bitter, and resinous with just a touch of warmth — pure West Coast glory.
This is not haze. This is not juice. This is OMFG — a throwback DIPA that will have you muttering its name after every sip.

From a 375ml can on 10/12/2025. Pours a clear deep golden with biggish head that disappears fairly quickly. The nose is herbal, with a bit of pine, resin and a touch of grapefruit. Tastes of sweet citrus fruit, leading into a quite intense bitterness with the full troika of pine, resin and grapefruit. Set of against a very light caramel malt backbone. Full bodied with average carbonation. Has a good dash of character and pretty good, but lacks the malty magic of great US made WCs.

Can. Pretty much clear amber with a near cm of white head. Aroma of grapefruit, pine, breadcrust, weeds. Sweet with a touch of biscuit as well as breadcrust, some tropical notes as well as pine and weeds. Firmly bitter but well off dry finish. Cheery bruiser.
