Description
Founded in North San Diego County in 2010 by Daniel & Jon Love, and Kamron Khannakhjavani, what began as a hobby years earlier had formed into a business. Originally operating out of a 2200 sq. ft. industrial space, the business grew quickly thanks to thirsty patrons visiting the industrial, but homely, onsite tasting room and adjacent homebrew store. Brewhouse upgrades soon followed and in 2012, Mother Earth opened a large Tap House in the historic downtown Vista district. The relocation of the tap room allowed the company to expand its production spaces even further and over time additional square footage was added to nearly 28000 sq. ft. in total.

In 2015 the company began development of a new, state-of-the-art 40,000 sq. ft. production facility in Nampa, Idaho. Featuring a 40 bbl multi-vessel brewhouse, and the capacity to produce over 100K bbls/yr, “Mother Earth – Nampa” went on-line in August of 2016 and through continuous upgrades and expansion rapidly became the largest brewery in the state of Idaho. As Mother Earth's second regional headquarters, Nampa supports most of the company's growth and produces beer for all markets outside Southern California. The original Vista brewery continues to provide draft and specialty offerings to its home market of Socal as well as creating unique one-off brews for visitors at its retail operations in North County San Diego. Mother Earth remains family owned and operated and has become a standard of success within the industry.

6.5% ABV
Hazy blond color with medium sized head. Strong aroma of pungent and citrusy hops. Dry but soft mouthfeel; lean malt flavor, with pungent and resiny hops. Powerful and balanced.
Easy to describe and just the perfect IPA; fresh and with delicate malt profile. A hop statement.

A beautiful colour, an orange-yellow, a head is weak and blond. The nose is interesting and not so typical as tripel, fruits, also some tropical fruits, peaches, nice fructose, marshmellows, bananas and only hint of spices. Taste has fruits with nuancees from both of yeast and hops, no sweetness, medium bitterness together with spices turns to end to quite dry. Some alcohol. Medium+ bodied, low carbonation, just enough fresh. Interesting beer but not typical Tripel. Tripel boosted with US-hops with nuancees from both sides. I like this beer.

650ml bottle from Saveur-biere

Pours clear golden orange with a smooth head. Aroma of resinous hops, grass, tropical fruits, floral notes and citrus. Taste is resinous, crisp and grassy with some floral notes and tropical fruitness. Finish is malty, crisp and lingering bitter with some grassy hoppiness. Okay, slightly unbalanced DIPA.
