HEFTY FEE (SESSION IPA)

What price freedom?  Some may say it is a hefty fee.  Which must be why some borrow to keep it around.  A punch of Mosaic hops arrive to collect what the nose owes.  On the hot side, an overdue hop bill adds up to bright notes of berry and limeade from thriftless amounts of Nelson and Motueka hops.  All leveraged by honey gold notes from the finest Canadian malts.  A delicious, low abv hoppy beer that tastes expensive yet offers a refreshing break from the debt of a life born free. 4.8% abv

 Brewed to a calculated 55 ibus and 5.5% abv or double nickels on the dime.  Angular notes of ruby red grapefruit, sweet orange, and pine strum upon a groovy bassline of light honey and vanilla in a compact yet satisfying little ditty.  A liquid tribute to a group of cats from San Pedro who jam econo – or fitting a lot into a little. “Punk was whatever we made it to be” a quote from late lead singer/guitarist D Boon inspires every recipe Ive ever brewed. Listen to the Minutemen, their band could be your life.

SUPER TONIC (COFFEE OATMEAL STOUT)

Musically speaking, the second note of the diatonic scale, or one step above Tonic. In our terms, a more potent elixir than the original.
