What's Your Name Mean?
"Want to play a game?" Used to be our response, but because of our growth and your support we're adding this link to ease your curiosity. No, it's not an acronym. Yes, it is a name! But it's not a combination of ours. In fact, Andrew and Kai are brother-in-laws. Each married to 2 of 3 sisters. Richard's brother is married to the third. And Voila! There it is! We are all family by marriage and bond. Oh, and the name.... is the girl's maiden name! Brownie points

From a crowler at the DC tasting on March 25, 2016. Poured a hazy yellow color, very hazy - totally unfiltered look to it. Small, creamy and foamy head on top. Aroma was lots of tropical fruit ntoes, citrus blast. Floral, juicy tropical. Mango, tangerine. Creamy. Very nice.

From a crowler at the DC tasting on March 25, 2016. Poured a very hazy golden color with a small off-white head. Aroma was a blast of herbal rosemary and vanilla. Orange citrus notes. Herbal notes are interesting, I think the vanilla worked better in this one than the rosemary combination. Helped to finish off the beer later in the night.

Not the huge nose that some of the other aslin ipas has but once in your mouth, you smell it, if that makes sense. Pineapple and citrus. Great balance and good finish. Hazy yellow pour. Crowler thanks to radagast. Subtle and subdued.
