High Seven vs Double High Seven

Whichever High Seven reaches higher? Let’s dig into the two anniversary IPA’s from Highland Park Brewery.

H7 – pours a darker yellow color. Spicy and grassy aroma. Light and lively for 7%. Grapefruit pith is the first flavor identified. Getting a rye character as well.  Has a medium hop bite to it. 

DH7 – this was a gusher. I set the can down, turned away and eruption. After the cleaning, the beer was super hazy. Sweet tart and lactose. Soft with a fruit punch spike.  Tongue scrape action like in my first hazies.

-imbo Pils

Highland Park Brewery is known for their pilsners, and rightfully so, and they have a new one for you….

Here are the details including a worthy cause associated with the beer –

“Jimbo Pils is a 5.5%ABV wicked hoppy Pilsner hopped with Strata, Mosaic, & NZ Cascade. This beer explodes right from the can with aromas of juicy mango, fresh pineapple, citrus zest, & big passion fruit. Jimbo is very similar to Timbo Pils but has a lighter body with a lighter malt presence & lower bitterness. Our brewer Keenan describes Jimbo Pils as “a tropical crispy boy!”

A portion of the proceeds from Jimbo Pils will be going to an organization that is very important to James, @hemosocal. This organization helps families & people with Hemophilia, or other bleeding disorders, get the resources they need & have been helping the SoCal community since 1954. Check out the Hemophilia Foundation of Southern California’s page for more info & to see how you can help support. “

How’s Yours?

Once of my pet peeves are label designs that use unreadable fonts but I like this beer name, How’s Your Day. The collaboration between Modern Times and Highland Park Brewery is another West Coast-style IPA, this one “loaded with Strata & Mosaic for a wildly successful intermingling of passion fruit, mango, citrus, and piney notes.”

A Highland Park Craftsman

Highland Park is close to Pasadena, so it seems right to have Craftsman Brewing do the team up thing with Highland Park Brewery. Below is the newsletter news…

“Earlier this year we inherited a wine foudre from Craftsman, so obviously we wanted our first brew into it to be with Mark & the gang! We brewed a beer & then transferred it into the foudre to ferment away fora while. In that foudre we used wild yeast propagated from acorns that came from Mark’s backyard!”

This news will keep me searching for when it gets tapped or bottled for sure.
