Sometimes you want to be taken to or by Oblivion, well, here is an Aroma Coma coming right at you Hop Heads! Oblivion Double IPA is our take or hat tip to some fine folks Stateside who have been pumping out Hop forward in balance IPAs and DIPAs since Adam and Eve were Brewers.
New World American Hops Citra and El Dorado sit alongside old school classics Cascade and Centennial and balance nicely on top of a Pilsen, Ale, Rye and Cara Gold Malt Base fermented out clean with a Nor Cal Ale Yeast. If this DIPA does not take you to Oblivion or release you from Oblivion we do not know what will! Enjoy Responsibly, Sip, Savour and Share! Cheers #BrewHoppy #BrewHappy always
