When exploring the French alps, we came across something we did not know exists. While hiking, Joel screamed “F*ck, that’s a Laser Raptor! I thought they went extinct thousands of years ago!” Little did we know, this Raptor was friendly. He had been outcasted decades ago and started his own brewery in Switzerland. After a few beers with this Raptor, we decided to do a collaboration and dedicate this beer after him! If you are wondering his name, it’s Jeff or El Jefe after a few beers.

Pigs Ear after party at Chez Smith. Thanks to Leighton for this one. Hazy gold beer, tidy pale cream colour head. Airy palate, semi dry and with decent fine carbonation. Smooth light pale malts bring a light creamy sweetness. Nice big spicy orange and lemon hops, light tropical fruits underneath. Dry piney spicy finish. A tad dry but nicely hoppy and very drinkable.
