One of our most tried and true recipes. Don’t call it a comeback! We bitter with a well known super-alpha and some of the most tried and true hops in craft history. Plus, at over 100 IBUs you will not forget this beer. Expect a balanced malt backbone to soften the intense piney bitterness and floral nose. Much like Big Mother, Primordial has been an annual release since our inception. A fitting concept for an aptly named beer.

Draft at Mother Earth during RBSG. Pours a dark orange color with a thin finger of white head. Big hops aroma, citrus and pine resin. Deep hop flavors are sweet at times and bring a big bitterness. Lots of dank piney hops and some citrus. No bells and/or whistles here... all hop flavor I2PA.

Bomber shared by Marcus. Pours bright copper with an off-white head. Aroma is citrus hoppy and sweet caramel. Med + body. Flavor is very hoppy, citrus and earth mostly, and the malt is clearly present. Finishes not too dry, but with bitterness, a hop burn, and trending my thoughts towards dank.

Bottle from Winco. Deep, clear copper pour, small head, streaky lacing. Muted aroma, mostly hop. Taste picks up, all of the grains and hop varieties seeking attention. Malts by a nose, but enough hops to finish bitter. Seemingly straightforward, but kind of complex.

On Tap Clear deep copper witha dense light tan head. Rich semi carmel malt aroma. Modest hop flavors and bitterness. esp for a double. But every thing blends well and this is a nice balanced beer.. Not very big or aggressive for a double though. I certainly wouldn’t guess 100 IBUs

22 oz. bottle from Perry’s. It pours a clear deep orange gold color with an off white head. The aroma has some strong orange, pine and grapefruit. Maybe a hint of hop spice and toasted malt. The flavor is piney and resinous with some orange, hop spice and grapefruit pith. Some backing caramel and toasted malt, but the big, fresh, resinous hop character takes control of the beer. Strong piney bitterness helps with a dry finish. Orange and resin. A brutal IIPA that served as a nice substitute for PtY since I didn’t feel like waiting in line at the Alehouse.
