About This Beer

Here’s my molten-lava-level hot take: nü-metal is the best genre of music ever. Trust me. Just crank up the umlaut-laden riffs and let that crunchy, goatee-flavored RAWK roll over you.

All that riffage can work up a thirst. Good thing you’re only making devil horns with one hand. You can use the other to slam A Nu Start!

Tasting Notes

This brew has more hops than Slipknot has drummers. An Ozzfest’s worth of El Dorado, Idaho 7, and Azacca cones make this Hazy one heavy load of lupulin. Massive waves of sweet pineapple, pulpy orange juice, and creamy mango will have your palate head banging!

It’s so ferociously delicious, you might swear your taste buds got eyebrow piercings and started talking back to their parents. Maybe all that rebellion comes courtesy of the hefty 10.5% ABV?

Absolutely amazing tropical/pineapple flavor. Great ddh flavor. Very drinkable especial considering it's a tipa, and bot a very detectable abv. The juiciness is real.

Nice and juicy with either a peach or apricot under tone with some dankness.

I get the juicy mango notes but seem to be missing the pineapple I had hoped for. Still delicious and shockingly juicy!

Love the reference on this beer. Drinks exceptionally smooth. And tasty to boot! I think I blue myself while drinking it.

I’m not an IPA guy but I still go out on a limb and get them anyway whenever they pop up and sound good in the description, this one I didn’t necessarily have high hopes for but it was definitely a lot better than I expected, had a full bodied flavor with a nice Aquinas mix with the fruit and sweetness it was an all-around good beer, I did have to add just a touch of orange juice to mellow it out a little bit but other than that it’s a pretty well rounded beer
