Opaque and yellow-orange in color, Pineapple Bomb may be the closest we’ve come to the haze characteristic in NE-style IPAs. Much as our typical modus operandi, we sought to strike a balance between the Juice Bombs of the NE with a subtle bitterness without being overpowering or lingering. Pineapple Bomb displays a fragrant bouquet of distinct tropical (specifically, pineapple) and citrus tones attributed both to the use of pineapple puree but also from the character of the Zythos hop.

Brewed with a straightforward grain bill, this dry-hoped Pilsner is packed full of subtle hop flavors and aromas. Hopped with German Magnum, Hallertau Mittelfrüh, Saphir, and Ella to produce a bright , fruit forward beer with soft spice notes on the back end. Magnum, Mittelfrüh, and Saphir are all German hops with noble characteristics, while Ella is an Australian hop related to Galaxy and German Spalt. The use of only German pilsner malt provides a clean malt backbone to let the hops shine. Read Less

We used Speyside distillers malt along with the addition of Dark Munich and Light Crystal malts, help provide the caramel color and malty sweetness this style is known for. In order to make our Scotch Ale a little different we added an experimental Biscuit Rye from Great Western Malting to add a slight peppery umami notes.
While Scotch Ales typically have very little bitterness we again decided to be a little different. We bittered this beer with a small dose of Magnum, and then added a hefty dose of experimental hop HBC 472. Known to produce mainly tropical and fruity flavors, this hop also produces some barrel and wood like characters that we were after. Read Less

Imbroglio: noun
an extremely confused, complicated, or embarrassing situation.

This triple dry-hopped double IPA pours with a slightly hazy appearance and soft white head that leaves subtle lacing in the glass. We wanted to feature the versatility of Strata hops in this beer, so we used it in multiple ways through out the process along with Citra and Calypso to create a tropical aroma upfront with hints of citrus and resin on the back end. While we ended up using 5# per barrel of hops in this beer, we tried to keep the bitterness low to make this double IPA even more approachable. Sitting at just under 8% ABV this beer is surprisingly dry with a clean finish. Read Less

Imagine, you're sitting on the beach, tiki drink in hand. Is that a hint of coconut? Maybe some mango and citrus? Oh, did you just notice some cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, and a touch of ginger? Now open your eyes, you're still in San Antonio, still social distancing, not at the beach, but this beer can help you get there.

This Tiki IPA is a collaboration with some of our awesome friends. The bad ass women from Girls Pint Out, Pink Boots Society, and Community Cultures helped us brew this sour ipa with the Pink Boots hop blend from YCH Hops. Fermented with Hornindal Kveik, mango and tangerine puree, and then aged on flaked coconut, this beer will take you to tropical paradise. Read Less
