Offshoot Beer Co. the hop arm of The Bruery has teamed up with noted midwestern IPA maker, Hop Butcher for the World on a new hazy double IPA, Beach Casual will be dressed up to 7.5% abv.
Butcher on the Beach
Oh My
You want orange, mango and guava? OK. You want it hazy? OK. You need it DIPA? Well OMFG, Maui Brewing has a new release for you.
28 Stones
It is probably not much of a shock for Stone Brewing to have an anniversary IPA. The only question is, what sub-style will it be? The answer, at least for year 28 is a hazy double IPA brewed with Nelson Sauvin and Mosaic hops. More details below…
Graffiti 2
Graffiti, the Artist Series DIPA from Boomtown Brewery in DTLA returns in “Purple Plush” or “Guac in the Park Green.”
It is a “…double dry hopped Hazy DIPA brewed with Galaxy, Cryo Citra & El Dorado hops. Orange and mango on the nose with flavors of guava, mango and resin.”
Holiday Cheers – Day 7 – Snow Globe from Short’s Brewing
Off to the Midwest for our next holiday beer as Short’s Brewing brings that staple of Christmas movies, the snow globe, now let’s shake it to see what is inside.
“We saw Grinch Joe Short muttering to himself and glowering from his lair so we concocted this double Sabro hopped hazy IPA and his heart grew three sizes, so now we’re spreading the love by adding Snow Globe IPA to our winter lineup. Hop on a snowmobile sleigh and take a ride towards epic amounts of coconut, tangerine, and apricot notes blended with soft touches of cedar, mint, and cream. This IPA will make you say “whoa whoa whoa”…. You know, instead of “ho ho ho.””
Review – Olor A Kush from Los Barbones Cerveceria
Time to welcome another brewery to Los Angeles via my beer review. Today it is Los Barbones Cerveceria and their Hazy Double IPA, Olor a Kush.
First off, not a fan of the imagery on the label. Especially if it is not indicative of what’s inside the can. Setting that aside, OAK pours a dark orange color with some haze to it. I would say medium to low. It is a little too sweet. Getting a Sweet Tart rush with an odd raspberry note. Has the needed Hazy softness and a nice DIPA level of malt structure but the hops are playing third string here when they should be number 1 or 1b.
Hippies
There Does Not Exist is a bit of a darling in the beer world so it comes as no surprise that they have teamed up with Firestone Walker on a highway series, a hippie highway of hops.
Where In the World
MadeWest Brewing has a new Hazy DIPA that you will not miss on the store shelf.
World Inside clocks in at 8.5% and hopped with Strata, Citra, Nelson, Mosaic Cryo.
Map to the Stars
You can’t really see the stars here in L.A.. You have to drive out to a Dark Sky community for that. But if you have the new DIPA from Trademark Brewing, you can be guided even through the haze in the pint glass…
Star Guide has your Idaho Gem, your Strata, and of course, Galaxy hops.
From NoHo to Van Nuys
Traffic trumps all in L.A. but generally, North Hollywood to Van Nuys is an easy ride and the breweries representing each valley city have joined forces for, what else? A hazy.
But I do like the evocative artwork on the label and the bottom band that is carrying the info. Might make a good Ho-ho-ho gift.
