In celebration of 4/20, we developed an IPA designed to capture the pungent, skunky essence of cannabis without THC or CBD. Our approach centred on a selection of potent, dank hops, Citra, Columbus, Idaho 7 CGX, and Nelson Sauvin, to build complex layers of resinous pine and earthy undertones. To heighten this profile, we incorporated Louie XIII BrewGas from Abstrax, a specialised terpene blend that mirrors the olfactory character of THC compounds. This combination delivers a clean, effervescent beer with a herbaceous intensity that deepens with every sip.

Pours clear gold with head that quickly fades. Lots of biitter orange, pine, skunky hop, hint of caramel. Really nice dank, bitter finish with just some sticky orange and caramel notes. Solid
