A modern West Coast IPA. Easy but assertive bitterness provides the perfect resting place for layers of pine and tropical fruit to conjure dreams of the Californian sunset. Not as bitter as the IPAs of yore, but carrying more heft and less sweetness than more recent iterations, Superfly continues our mission of creating wonderfully drinkable balanced beers to be enjoyed by ‘all sorts’.
