Our Deadhead IPA Series melds the strong vibe of our favorite music with the beer we love to drink, elevating both into a higher state of consciousness. Our Haze of the Dead reverberates with booming amounts of Citra and Simcoe hops piercing through the melodic mouthfeel of flaked oats, wheat & pils malts, concocting into a Juicy, Hazy Double IPA that will be sure to wake the dead. Cheers!

Aroma of pine needles freshly crushed in my hand. ig bitter bash of stupidass mustache skull. Terribly on style and super rude. Perhaps not as viscous as most real double IPA. Bitter, terribly bitter. It has a bitter black beard too.

32oz crowler pours with a murky gold body that has a thin copper hued core and supports a thin near white head of foam. The aroma offers up inviting notes of mango, guava, tangerine and then a vague sweet kind of malty base. The taste delivers juicy tangy and modestly soft notes of mango, guava, tangerine tanginess and a bit of pillow soft cantaloupe. To midway and into the finish it picks up a thin malt not as well as vague sweetness. This is bright and punchy and tangy and manages to somehow avoid becoming overly sweet. But it could stand to be a little less sweet. Really nice IIPA regardless with zero sense of the ABV.

Can from Kings Beer and Wine. Hazy yellow with a medium white head. Fresh with juice, hops, citrus, pineapple and some malt. The body was medium as was the bitterness. A pleasant one.
