November 15th, 2018 was discouraging. An icy-mix caused the scheduled food truck to cancel and beer drinkers to stay home. We sat around the tasting room trying to figure out how to let people know our six-week old brewery existed. We discussed hiring someone to twirl a "Beer Here" sign...

We've come a long way! As usual we double dry-hopped Snip Snap with Citra and Galaxy, two of our favorites. They work together to create an immense aroma of passionfruit, melon, and citrus on a creamy backdrop overloaded with oats and wheat.

Snally: pours hazy with white head. Aroma is a nicely rounded fruitiness, orange juice along with some oniony notes. Taste has citrus, some sweet tropics, and it ends with bitter finish.
