COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
A style of beer curiously born on the foggy shores of Father Junipero Serra’s first founding mission. Our own vigorous entry is one rebellious IPA, quick on the trigger, and brimming with a bounty of hop ingenuity. This is a big, bold, brazen beer, a restless vision of a new America.

bhensonb (9092) - Woodland, California, USA - JUN 9, 2010
Bomber from the Co-op in Davis, CA. Pours copper with a finely bubbled off-white head. Aromas of citrus hop over a warm smelling malt backbone. Lots of hop, and a lot of it is fruity and floral. Finishes bitter in a slightly harsh way. The malt shows up a bit more in the finish, but it’s still bitter. Good ale.

hopscotch (8238) - Vero Beach, Florida, USA - NOV 9, 2010
Bottle… Hazy orange ale with a small, fat-bubbled, white head. The nose offers honey and toffee malts framed by earthy, woody, resiny hops. Full-bodied with prickly carbonation. The flavor is a crescendo of measured, sweet, sugary malts up front followed by a blast of harshly bitter hops on the backside. Coarse, bitter, dry finish.
