Do you feel like a boss?! You will when you crack open our flagship San Diego IPA, Boss Pour. A softer bitterness, and the use of super aromatic hops sets apart the San Diego style from the typical West Coast versions. In this example, waves of Pacific Northwest hops are supported by American 2-row and copious amounts of English specialty base malts. Bright tropical and citrus fruits with a touch of dank hop character are the ones in charge here, and will surely be good for the end of your daily grind. So step on up, and be a Boss. Cascade, Simcoe, Nugget, Citra and Mosaic hops.

(On tap @ Hamilton’s Tavern, SD, April 4/17) Pours light gold, fairly hazy, with a tiny white head (dirty glass action). Aroma is bright and citrusy, lots of grapefruit, some mango, light orange, a bit dank and floral. Flavour of moderately dank leafy hops, pine, grapefruit, mango, citrus peels, moderate sweet pale malts, fairly juicy grapefruit in the back end with a light to moderate bitterness. Medium body, slightly above average carbonation. Quite high drinkability, well balanced, not the most juicy but very nice modern IPA.

On draft somewhere. It pours a mostly clear yellow color with a white head. The aroma is strong with potent, fresh grapefruit and hints of dank. Light pale malt profile. The flavor has a little more dank than grapefruit, but still citrus heavy with nice dankness. Pale malts. Very clean. Great stuff.
