Swami’s IPA was first brewed in 1992 to commemorate one of our favorite local surf breaks nestled below a spiritual enlightenment temple that sits on the cliffs above. This West Coast style IPA features a timeless American hop profile of citrus and pine with a crisp balanced finish. It’s a dream come true to be able to share so many pints over time as we all evolve together. Whatever your form of meditation is, we hope that each and every sip contributes to your own self-realization…Cheers!

Hops: Chinook, CTZ, Cascade, Centennial, Citra, & Simcoe

Can from The Beerhive. Clear golden body with a thick off-white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of parma violets, herbs and dried orange peel. Flavour of watermelon, pine and lemon jelly. Medium body with an oily texture. Soft fizz. Well balanced and easy to drink. Quite pricey though at £6 a can.

Can from Craftissimo at home. Quite light golden pour with fine white head. Aroma is strong pineapple and mango with some candied banana - really nice. Taste is much more citric bitterness with tropical fruit and candied banana. Bitter slightly boozy finish. Smooth palate. Was worried this wouldn’t be in good shape but tastes pretty fresh. Really good.

On tap at Thunder Canyon, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out dank piney hops and she biscuity malt. Flavour is bone dry, with piney hops and biscuity malt, and a very bitter finish. Nice stuff.
