Getting a hold of the one-of-a-kind hopjuice from Seattle’s Mirage is like capturing Bigfoot.

Until today, high-tailing it to a local bottle shop was your only shot at a stash! Unless you already miraculously managed to snag a spot in their coveted bottle club, of course.

As soon as head brewer Michael Dempster posts a new release on Instagram, you can practically hear the herd of hopheads taking to the streets. They know that Micheal never makes the same beer twice.

That includes today’s measly 30 cases of A Ghoul DIPA. This two-man brew crew stuffed it with 6.5 lbs per barrel (2x the average amount) of Vic Secret, Galaxy, and Mosaic Hops! Each lusciously full-bodied sip swims with sumptuous layers of punchy, tropical notes, harmonized with a bit of raw gooseberry flavor — ALL from the “stupid amount” of hops. 

The mouthfeel? Smooth as silk. Thick as freshly-squeezed OJ. Softer than a well-loved sweatshirt. 

I admit that I’ve officially given up on finding Bigfoot. But, Mirage’s hazy creations are always worth the hunt.
