Mike Bennett has teamed up with Gigantic Brewing and Weird Portland United to make an IPA brewed with some of his actual art. Mike’s creations start as a piece of simple plywood, so our goal was to create a beer that evokes the lovely smell of cutting plywood, essentially the smell of warm sawdust and more specifically “toasty pine”. To that end we’ve created an IPA that has an intense piney hop aroma, with citrus and subtle dank notes. Through the deft use of Chinook, Simcoe, Mosaic and Columbus hops, and the key addition of a ceremonial amount of sawdust by Mike Bennett, our new beer creation has come to life.
