Our first batch of Quorum IPA was such a hit, we decided to give it its own name - Bully Pulpit - intensely hopped with Mosaic and Simcoe hops preaching to the the drinker what San Diego IPA’s should be - very dry and bold hop character with light malt background - huge fresh mango, citrus, resin and pine hoppiness dominating the aroma and flavor.

Light golden color. Rocky white head. Big punchy dry hoppy nose with tons of tropical fruit notes. Dry, hoppy tropical magic with just the right amount of malt backbone. Modestly aggressive bitter finish. After too many NE IPAs I gotta say it feels good to go back to a top notch west coast IPA

(On tap @ Council, April 3/17) Pours a clear yellow gold with an average white head. Nose of floral hops, dry grass, pine, light tropical notes, a bit of malt. Flavour has more of that slightly grainy malt as a core, with grass, pine needles, dried flowers, mango, grapefruit peels. Drying finish, moderate bitterness, herbs and citrus peels. Medium bodied, average carbonation. Solid IPA on the old school side of things.

On tap at Council, pours a clear pale yellow with almost no head. Aroma brings out dank hops, light herbal notes and biscuity malt. Flavour brings out herbal hops and biscuity malt in good balance. Almost a little medicinal, with a strange herbal quality. It's okay.
