Beer: Patchwork Mosaic — IPA 6%

Release Date: Wednesday, September 22, 2021

What's the deal? This beer is hopped exclusively with Mosaic hops. The aroma is super bright with notes of peaches and white wine grapes. The flavor is very tropical with Papaya and Passion Fruit. We kept this plenty bitter to balance the sweetness of the malt and the fruitiness of the hops.

Beer: Collecting Garretts — TIPA 10%

Release Date: Wednesday, September 22, 2021

What's the deal? A solid blend of El Dorado, Strata, Mosaic, then a touch of some old school Chinook brings out bright dank citrus and pineapple notes in the aroma. The flavor has a big hop presence that reminds you of a tropical cocktail, with a touch of dankness and an abv that is hidden in the beer. We hope you enjoy this one, maybe even with a friend named Garrett?
