Description
West Coast IPAs built the craft beer world. This one pays respect to those roots while bringing a fresh hop lineup to the party. The grain bill is straightforward: Pale Malt and Munich keep it clean and lean, Crystal 60L adds a little warmth, and corn sugar dries the whole thing out so the hops have nowhere to hide. Nugget drops the bitterness up front, then Citra and Mosaic take over from there. Late boil, whirlpool, dry hop. Tropical fruit, citrus, stone fruit, the works. It finishes dry and clean thanks to US 05 doing what it does best: staying out of the way. This is the beer equivalent of a well worn leather jacket. Classic cut, still looks good.
