Party Beer Co. has a new DIPA about to land in their West Adams brewery, BDE.

The more farm information on labels the better in my mind. And better yet to put it on the front with logos instead of tucked into small font wording on the back.
Radiant Beer Co. gives the shout out to Loftus Ranches as well as Yakima Chief for Every Hero Needs an Origin Story.
Starting with Idaho 7 and “supporting hops of Citra, Loral, and Simcoe make this a tremendously rich flavored experiment in hops. It’s crystal clear, with prominent aromatics of fresh pineapple juice, ripe cantaloupe, tangerine, papaya, and citrus zest, also showcased in its flavor as ripe tropical fruit, kaffir lime, and a wisp of pine. The finished bee is a zesty one, that’s dry, balanced, and easy to drink, with medium bitterness and bright carbonation.”
Out There
Ambitious Ales has a new can drop with what they are labeling a Cosmic Hazy IPA called Dream Tea.
Here is their description…
”We took our standard hazy base and supercharged it with Phantasm derived from New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc grapes in the whirlpool along with Citra Icognito and dry hopped with Mosaic Spectrum…
”Fermented with a hyper-thiol driving yeast strain designed to unlock some of the most intense fruity characters we’ve experienced in any fermentation to date! Dream Tea has a nice medium body with low bitterness and packed with huge notes of Fruit Gushers, Fresh Mango and Lychee while finishing with a touch of hoppy resin.”
Lager Weather
Camarillo’s Institution Ales has some serious art on their labels even for what they describe as “A simple lager”
Here are the details of this American lager, “brewed with American 2-row and hopped lightly with Cascade, Liberty and Willamette. It’s crisp and refreshing with a hint of sweet honey and fruity hops.”
Ten Year Lager
If you haven’t been to the original Highland Park Brewery, here is a reason to head to…
“Our pals at The Hermosillo have been with HPB since day 1, literally! We started off brewing (& still brew) in a tiny space in the back of their spot on York. We’re so excited about their 10th anniversary & so excited to share Hermosillo Lager with y’all!
Hermosillo Lager is a 5.2%ABV lager made in collaboration with The Hermosillo to celebrate their 10th anniversary! Ross & Michael asked for something crisp & hoppy with a focus on more Noble hops, including HopHead Farms Zuper Saazer.”
Distorted
A heads up for fans of Nelson hops. King Harbor has a new West Coast – Double IPA – DDH in cans now.
On the Dial
Oh how I remember AM radio. Static. Lots of it. Mumford Brewing has a new classic IPA.
I really like the light, gauzy colors and also that it is an “old-fashioned” IPA.
Trust Helles
Burbank’s Trustworthy Brewing has a test for you and it is hell(es).
Speed to these Barrels
I usually am not a breaking news guy but AleSmith has a new beer coming, like in an hour. It has been waiting though for much longer.
Here is the beer description: “We’ve matured our Russian Imperial Stout in premium bourbon barrels for up to one year to create Barrel-Aged Speedway Stout, with the perfect blend of flavors. Notes of oak, vanilla, and bourbon add another level of complexity to this beer’s already massive flavor profile of chocolate, locally roasted coffee, and roasted barley. Designed to be enjoyed now or aged in the bottle for years to come, this special release is truly a unique beer that is smooth as it is rare.”
Head to their webstore to pick-up a bottle or head to a finer beer bottle shoppe in the coming week to possibly find a bottle.
Work
Brewjeria has added to their line of workers we need to applaud and consider more with ….
The blonde ale drops Saturday, March 26th and is in collaboration with “Las Domestic Workers (Mujeres en Accion LA) will benefit the advocacy of women’s labor both paid and unpaid with Latinx With Plants lending an assist.”
