Batch 1

Classic San Diego style DIPA with loads of fruity and tropical hops emitting aromas and flavors akin to over-ripe cantaloupe, mango, orange marmalade, and papaya.

Trying to get a brewery open on time is almost impossible; trying to get one open early... what the hell were we thinking? With a nightmarish rush to get beers in tanks and a year removed from the last professional batch, we accidentally found our brewing voice. Batch 1, our first brew, a Double IPA with Mosaic, Galaxy, and Citra hops, didn't finish out completely and stalled fairly high. Then we didn't log the dry hop and ended up dry-hopping it twice. The result was a beer that almost made us cry with frustration, but our friends, customers, and peers seemed to really like it. Fast-forward three and a half years, and we're going to try and see if we can replicate the screw-ups of Batch 1 without screwing up. If we've learned anything in those three and a half years, this beer should come out with a huge body, low bitterness, a big tropical aroma, and a poorly fined haziness.
