ABV: 6.5%

IBU: 50

Ticks: 90

Old school meets new school in this fresh approach to the classic IPA. At 50 IBU’s and 6.7% ABV, Breaking Bud features the restrained bitterness and alcohol of a classic IPA with newer tropical fruit hop flavors and aromas of Mosaic. Also in the hop mix are Simcoe and CTZ, creating layers of mango, passion fruit, pine and dank. A malt bill with a pinch of crystal malt and a hefty dose of flaked wheat keeps the beer crisp while adding flavor complexity. Cheers to the past, present and future!

On tap at Yard House Marina del Ray. A bit hazy light orange with a small white head. Aroma and taste of citrus, resin, some hay and malt. The body was medium as was the bitterness. A decent one.

Can from Brewcraft at home. Nearly clear golden slightly orange pour. Aroma is light pale/pilsner malt, light citrus hop. Taste is similar. Strong bitterness but not huge amount of flavor. Straw, grass, light pine, smooth golden malt. Tasty but not as interesting or big as I’d hoped for. Disappointing.
