Our first Workshop offering is a Hybrid West Coast IPA. We took the best from both East Coast Hazy and West Coast Hoppy to bring you this tasty Crossover IPA. A little hazy and juicy with a solid hop backbone for the drinker who hasn’t ventured much in either direction, it’s the best of both worlds. Please leave us comments and we’ll go back into The Workshop and build you a beer.

DESCRIPTION:

Batch #2 of The Workshop is a contemporary West Coast IPA. It boasts bright hop flavors of citrus, fruit, and pine, hop-forward-yet-harmonized with just enough malt foundation to support the deliciously aromatic hop charges and fermented with clean ale yeast that allows the hops to stand front and center. Bravo and Mosaic Incognito in the whirlpool set the stage with bold West Coast IPA hop flavor and refreshing, crisp bitterness. The heavy load of dry-hops features Simcoe, Idaho Gem, and Talus hops. Simcoe, now a WC IPA classic, has pungent notes of stone fruit, fresh pine needles, and zesty citrus rind; Idaho Gem adds layers of tropical fruit, ripe cherries, and candied oranges; and Talus, a relatively new variety bred from Sabro, wraps it all up in further depth and complexity by adding notes of pink grapefruit, floral perfume, juicy stone fruit, and pine resin.
