A NorCal collab with the hop maniacs at Shred Beer Co. out of Rocklin. Four hops deep — Simcoe, Nelson, Idaho 7 Cryo, and Columbus Cryo — built on a stripped-down 2-Row and Pils foundation that stays out of the way. Gnarly Budz is loud, dank, and unapologetically bitter. The kind of West Coast IPA that smells like a pine forest had a fistfight with a fruit stand. And the pine forest won.
