What we're drinking:

Modern Times Beer - San Diego, CA

Proxima Hazy IPA, 7.5% ABV, 4 IBU

"Monstrous quantities of Mosaic, Comet, and Chinook hops to craft this incredibly tasty IPA, yielding vibrant notes of mango, grapefruit, and pineapple that will be virtually impossible to consume without issuing forth sighs of delight and contentment."

New Belguim Brewing - Fort Collins, CO

Trippel Belgian Style Ale, 8.5% ABV, 43 IBU

"Our Trippel has always been a big, beautiful Belgian-style ale. This golden beer opens with a bold blast of spicy Noble hops, courtesy of Saaz and Hallertau Mittlefruh, and gives way to the fruity aromas offered by our traditional Belgian yeast. Brewed with Pilsner and Munich malts, Trippel is classically smooth and complex, and sings with a high-note of sweet citrus before a pleasantly dry finish delivers a warm, strong boozy bite. Give Trippel a sip to get you smiling."

Heathen Brewing - Vancouver, WA

Promiscuous Blond Ale, 5.5% ABV, 19 IBU

Pilsner malts shape this delicate bodied ale that climaxes with a refreshing wheat undertone. Seductive Saaz hops flirt with spicy notes while a floral aroma from the Cascade satisfies a modest hop fantasy.

Rueben's Brews - Seattle, WA

Hazealicious IPA, 6% ABV, 45 IBU

Tropical fruit notes, in particular passion fruit, sit on a soft & pillowy body. The stars of the show are the big, bright hops with restrained bitterness providing balance.
