This is a very important beer to us. The Enso circle is our Brewery’s logo and is a symbol of balance, creation, and life. The impossible task of hand drawing a perfect circle creates the imperfections and details that exactly make the Enso beautiful. The beauty of imperfection is what drives us to develop, grow, innovate, and improve in a quest for balance and perfection. We could think of no better symbol to represent our work as a craft brewery as we share our journey and our path while we strive for balance and amazing beer. We’re thrilled that you take this journey with us.
We took aspects of our favorite past brews and integrated them to express a single manifestation of Equilibrium. Enso takes the grain bill and fermentation of dHop5, uses a hybrid Citra/Galaxy hopbill of dHop5 and Dreamwave Fluctuation, a touch of lactose like Dreamwave Fluctuation, and applies our energy treatment.
Enso pours a beautiful milky bright yellow with aromas of passion fruit, assorted citrus, pineapple, and sorbet. The flavor has bright notes of passion fruit, melon, and peach all coming together in a creamy lime push pop ending. This beer is soft and drinkable and ends with our signature #EQjuice finish in perfectly balanced form.

Can at home, from CW online, 06/10/20. Murky fruit smoothie orange with a decent just off white cap. Nose is weed, ripe citric flesh, sweet malts, honeydew melon, mango smoothie, raw pineapple. Taste comprises grass, putty, raw pineapple shreds, orange pith, pine resin, weedy bite, light dextrose splash. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spliced with lightly aggressive juicy but weed laden hop bitterness. Solid DIPA that drinks fairly easily and carries just a nip of boost with the alcohol masked well.

Pours a hazy, golden-orange, with smallish head. Aroma is pretty dank, with some notes of sour washcloth, grass, citrus, and tropical fruit. Flavor is grass, green onion, citrus, tropical fruit. Mouthfeel is pretty soft and full. There is a good amount of hop bitterness at the finish.
