Death Valley Johnnie

Death Valley Johnnie, a World War II veteran, was stationed in a forward field hospital supporting Navy and Marine wounded in the Pacific theater. When asked about his experience he replied, “Other than the war…I hated the bugs and humidity.” This is why he would bring his family on vacation to the hot, arid desert in California- Death Valley. Crafted with Red-X malt to capture the desert palette with red hues, Bravo hops to bring out the earthy yet citrusy flavor of the malt, and dry hopped with Falconer’s Flight hops to commemorate the island hopping boys he spent his time helping. Death Valley Johnnie Red Ale is brewed in their memory. Show Less
