Inspired by Zombieland's legendary amusement park showdown, Pacific Playland is a crisp, hop-forward pilsner built for those who like their lagers with a little more bite.
After falling in love with the results of our collaboration with Crosby Hops and Tonewood Brewing, we asked our friends at Crosby to send us more of the incredible Roy Farms Experimental 1631 hops. Paired with Sterling and Centennial, the result is a bright, snappy West Coast Pilsner bursting with citrus, floral character, and a clean, dry finish that keeps you coming back for another sip.
At just 4.9% ABV, it's dangerously drinkable and showcases everything we love about modern hop expression in a classic lager framework.
A special shoutout to Bryan, who took the lead on this recipe and absolutely knocked it out of the park. We know how talented he is, and this beer is further proof.
Welcome to Pacific Playland. The rides are fast, the lines are short, and unlike Zombieland, the only rule is ordering a second pint.

16 oz can from AE, 7/8/26. Mostly clear yellowish color with a foamy white head. Melon, grass, pineapple, orange zest, and some light spice. Lots of flavor. Clean and highly drinkable. A little dry on the finish. Nice one.
