A first for us this year! Our pals at @loftusranches and @yakimachief flew us over some of their fresh picked Krush (aka HBC 586) on a Saturday, and brewers Pete & Conor worked like crazy to create absolute magic with the near 500 lbs of that good good! When we say “fresh picked”, it’s truly the only time of year that we can make this happen, cause these green bb’s are picked only during the hop harvest in Aug/Sept for our side of the world. All the rest of the hops that we use throughout the year are dried. Similar to cooking at home, it’s the difference of a recipe that uses fresh basil vs dried basil. In this example, a Pally™️ could use lots of fresh basil without overdoing the dish, but if a Pally™️ was to use LOTS of dried basil, it would be difficult to balance or most likely eat. Are you staying with me? So, to make this beer sing using fresh hops, a CRAZY level of Fresh hops (aka Wet Hops) need to be used to create true impact. The result? This one is insane! Fully saturated from sip to sniff in ways that make ya wish we could always deliver this level of intensity. This one is looking more unfiltered than ever, but it’s still our same West Coast process, and it even drinks that way too. Tasting notes? Think Hawaiian POG juice, Orange Bang, and even a yummo hit of lemongrass
