We took our flagship IPA, Cush, and decided to create a companion that uses more of an old school approach. Cali Cush is an ode to easy drinking, crushable West Coast IPAs. Still packed with a charge of Mosaic and Simcoe, we replaced our house ale strain, and fermented it out with a more traditional California ale strain. The result is a more crisp and clear beer. Amped up with extra pine notes, and a lingering, welcoming bitterness, this is a fun classic twist on our classic beer. Perfect for any time of the day, we hope you enjoy the twist to one of our favorite recipes.

Frothy, mellow amber plastic cup pour in National Harbor.

Herbal, straight up nose with a touch of grass.
Grassy front with an earthy & significant white grapefruit rind bite; slightly numbing.
Some body, touch of sweetness leaning dry, hint of booze, great with food.

Cheers.

Golden, a bit cloudy colour, medium-sized white head. Piney, a bit resiny aroma, also slightly bready. Medium-bodied. Piney and resiny flavour, light caramalt, a bit of citrus - good drinkability, just a bit bready (=old).

Canned towards a clear orange foam. White little bit opaque dank fruits, pine and grapefruit pretty darned decent

Can at BeerTemple, shared with Matthijs, recommended by Nick, 17th October 24. Pours an off clear straw. Aroma has pie resin, malts. Taste is bitter, malty, citrus and pine. Nice
