Fanzine IPA is an early spring seasonal collaboration. This year we sat down with our friends at Georgetown Brewing in Seattle and the hop masters at Yakima Chief and looked at each other fondly until this beer popped out of our heads fully-formed like the goddess Athena springing forth from Zeus’s forehead after a long headache. Just kidding, we did a lot of test batches and tasted them like normal people. The result is the ideal spring beer - packed with hundreds of pounds of the finest Cryo Hops for concentrated bursts of flavor on light, bubbly butterfly wings. Fanzine is the ultimate fan tribute to the beer world’s favorite style: The IPA.

16oz can from Boise Co-op. Cloudy golden pour, thin layer of tight white head, streaky lacing. Aroma is bready malts with a touch of citrus. Taste follows with a rich, bready malt base leading to a light citrusy buzz. Not that bitter, but what it has stays with you for a while. Smooth, full, creamy
