The realization of our wildest dreams from the brewery’s infancy. A Golden Promise malt base smothered with Citra, Mosiac, and Simcoe hops.

Pours a very hazy, muddy yellow-brown, with almost no head (it really doesn’t look too appetizing). Aroma is very dank, with loads of citrus and big hop presence. Flavor is intensely bitter, with a huge citrus element (grapefruit) and a lot of pine-hop bite. Very smooth, luscious, pillowy mouthfeel. Bitter finish. Really nice.

Hazy pale white amber color. Very dank biscuity, citrusy nose. Tastes like white grapefruit juice with some biscuit character. Doesn’t come across as beer. Light medium bodySo flawlessly executed smooth and modest bitterness. The abv is so well hidden. Just perfectly executed. So quaffable. Just amazing.

Pours hazy pear into a shaker. Bright white soapy head with little retention recedes leaving spider lacing. Dusty scallion and tropical fruit aromas. Sharp with yeasty scallion and hot passionfruit upfront turning to bitter pith in the dry, lasting finish. Obviously, I wanted to like this one more...

In draft at the brewery it is a cloudy yellow gold with a thick off white head. The aroma is one apple and the taste is strong bitter orange that has a smooth pineapple finish

Fresh can into a snifter showing hazy mucous yellow with no head. The nose shows big dank notes of cannabis and light pine resin. The palate is light bodied and lightly carbonated. Strong flavors of cannabis and pine with a moderate but gentle bitterness. Strong citric zest spiciness on the finish. I understand it’s insanely hyped, but I definitely prefer Substance.
