Stranded on a desolate road with nothing but the backpack that reminds him it wasn’t always like this. Lavish parties, mansions, and fountains of hazy IPA used to be the norm. He didn’t choose the Ferrari lifestyle. It chose him. It may escape him now, but this stallion will ride again. We vibed out with our compadres at Lua Brewing Company to manifest liquid opulence. Brewed with a pretentiously golden aesthetic, loaded with luxuriously oil-laden hops, and soft as thousand thread count sheets. Drink fresh. Pinkies out.

I love collaborations! I don’t know anything about Alia Brewing though… Toppling Goliath x Lua Ferrari Backpack Double IPA with Strata, Sabro, Riwaka, Amarillo and Citra Looks like hazy honey juice with eggshell white foam and a big mouthwatering juicy tropical hop bouquet with coconut. Full bodied with good juicy but a green bitter woodsy finish that’s a bit too much pine. Solid fun brew.

17th December 2021, Laguna Hills California. Mini-tasting with myself (family out at a Christmas Light Show): 16 Fluid Oz can into an old Corsendonk stemmed tulip glass (two pours). Cloudy dull yellow body (think Lemon Curd in colour), snow white head. Fruity nose with a coconut undertone, citrus fruits to the fore. Taste is also citrussy and again with that Sabro hop coconut influence. Fairly 'dense' body, almost 'thick' in texture (think watery Lemon Curd, but no toast). My first beer from these guys and I'm impressed, I have no idea who Lau is!
