Over five breeds of heron have made their home in the Great Rift Valley region of Kenya. Likewise, we have taken their lead by crafting an IPA with five different hops blanketed over a foundation of clean malt. Featuring Simcoe, Citra, & Amarillo hops this is our take on the American IPA.

Sampled at Meridian Pint, pours a lightly hazy dark orange with some spidering white head. Nose has candied orange, orange zest, grassy, stinky scapes. Flavor is bright with orange, grass and green onion, simple grist rounds it out. Finishes bitter, just off dry. Reminds me of Citra beers of old.
