Pernicious is our flagship India Pale Ale boasting a silver medal at this year’s Great American Beer Festival. This massively dry-hopped ale has minimum malt complexity and a combination of juicy, tropical fruit-forward hops with heavy resinous American hops. Pernicious is the epitome of a West Coast IPA, made right here in the Southeast.

Solid IPA, bold and bitter, fronted by grapefruit and passion fruit, followed by pine, resin, and a touch of dankness. Finishes with a hoppy flourish undercut by a mild grainy sweetness. Not bad.

Gold with a frothy white head. Fruity aroma full of papaya and pineapple. Floral though too. Dank somewhat moldy character underneath. Dry and bitter the whole way through. Light warmth at the end. Good.

Sixer at home. My supermarket rarely has new ticks but here we are. Golden brew with a smallish head. Nose is citrus and melon. Tastes of grapefruit, honey dew, resin, caramel. Fairly bitter. Touch plastic and boozy
