DOUBLE DRY-HOPPED FINALLY OPEN IN LOS ANGELES DIPA (COLLAB WITH HIGHLAND PARK)
In honor of our second year of existence in DTLA, we’ve upped the ante significantly for this beloved DIPA, dry-hopping the living hell out of it with Citra Cryo and Strata during fermentation before a second dry hop with Citra, Strata & Centennial. What resulted is a hazy, straw-colored marvel that boasts a verdant garden of pineapple, stone fruit, and tropical aromas followed by massive notes of ripe citrus, papaya, peaches, and mango. It’s a magnificently successful beverage experiment that more than lives up to the celebration at hand.

It boasts a gentle minerality from the amphora plus lovely oak and vanilla notes from the Foeder, all wrapped in bright acidity and funk that create a beautiful marriage of complexity and crushability.

NATURAL HONDURAS LOS AMIGOS COFFEE BEANS AGED IN MODEM TONES BARRELS
**The deadline for these will be 14 days from the first day of pickups
Grown 1550 meters above sea level in the the El Socorro farming community in Honduras, these natural-process beans arrive courtesy of Finca Los Amigos, a family farm run by coffee producer David Lopez. Once we got ahold of them, they were aged in bourbon barrels which had previously housed our storied Modem Tones imperial stout, adding decadent notes of chocolate, bourbon, and oak to the existing character of pear & brown sugar. It’s a seriously magnificent confluence of our beer & coffee programs, and we’re pretty psyched for you to make yourself a cup.
Format: 8oz Bag
Price: $20
Total Quantity: 60
