If 30th street in San Diego were a church then we would absolutely be one of its disciples; having grown up on the amazing hoppy beers originating in north county, but really finding a higher calling in from the second wave of IPA that came out of San Diego proper in the 2010s. A reimagining of our favorite IPAs from that era, Middle Out Westcoast IPA; a hyper-dry India Pale Ale with a laser beam of hop aromas and a desolate landscape of malt character. Upon launch this IPA scores big with immense hop-derived notes of ruby red grapefruit, peach rings, citrus blossom, passion fruit puree, lychee gummies, pine needles, mango juice, and a hint of sauvignon blanc; perfectly showcasing the complimentary shaft angle that Simcoe and Amarillo hops share as they stand tip to tip with Krush. More bitter than a predatory flautist and with sweetness that is harder to find than the floating island community of Arallon, we like to think of Middle Out as our Westcoast IPA version 3.0. [hops: Amarillo, Simcoe, Krush / 6.6% ABV]
