Brewed with our old friends from NMBCo, and our new friends from Verdant and Deya, this IPA features Chinook, and a prominent, aromatic, and complex maltiness from a touch of Munich and Château Arome malts in the grist. A power outage shut us down mid brew, but rapid service and repair saved the day and got us back up and running in time to finish brewing.

Tap, at the brewery. Very hazy, slightly murky, light amber. Thin, dense, lasting, just off white head. Nose has a curious, strawberry jam sandwich thing going on. Loads of granary bread like malts. Notes of baked orange and grapefruit. The yeast profile here is interesting to say the least. It’s a little earthy and smoky, almost. Taste is malty sweet, with a healthy dose of citrus bitterness. Medium body. Light carbonation. Spicy, earthy and oddly smoky bitterness to finish. A curiosity for sure.
