Collaboration brew for LA Beer Week 2014. For this year’s brew, these two very adept west-coast style brewers logically decided to stick with an IPA, but to thrown in some Capt. Kirk style improvisation with the addition of 20% Heirloom Spelt to a grist otherwise made up of entirely 2-row malt as well as new Medusa hops, a neo-Mexicana hop variety they found to be spicy with a bright fruitiness just shy of being citric. The beer, Vulcanizer IPA, will be a pale, ~7% ABV IPA that features a soft palate of light, earthy spelt with citric hops Jarrylo, Amarillo, and El Dorado in the kettle and primarily Medusa hops in the dry-hop adding big aromas and flavors of passionfruit, lemon, and light spiciness. The beer will be tapped at Beachwood BBQ & Brewing on Thursday, September 18 at a party to kick off LA Beer Week with both brewers and a few others from the Drake’s crew in attendance. Event starts at 6pm.
