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.

16oz can from Boise Co-op. Crystal clear golden pour, thin skin of white foam sticks around. Aroma is grainy, bready, caramel. Caramel really pops in the taste, notes of oak, bready, creamy feel. Super smooth with a faint bitter bite at the finish. Excellent.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

Can from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours slightly hazy gold with a smallish white head. Aroma is tropical with a touch of ripe pineapple. Med body. Juicy and lightly fruit sweet. Enough bitterness to contain the sugars. Flavor is citrus, peach, melon and possibly passion fruit. Perhaps subtly complex as to flavor. Flavor is quite pleasing.

Can from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours hazy gold with a nice white head. Aroma is very tropical. Passion fruit and coconut at least. Med body. Juicy but a bit more towards earthy than sweet. Flavor is passion fruit, coconut, pale stone fruit and some herb notes that are earthy or dank, or maybe both. Not your standard juicy sweet NEIPA.
