Thriving Metropolis IPA - Breakside | Seek and Enjoy

Thriving Metropolis IPA

We originally brewed this beer in 2022 with Ghost Town Brewing in Oakland — they are great friends and brewers, and we all have liked this beer so much that we’ve continued to brew and can it again and again. This beer brings together their preference for minimal kettle hopping and their love of Krush with our predilection for using small charges of Southern Hemisphere hops in the whirlpool and dry hop. Expect notes of apricot, lime, strawberry, Hawaiian Punch, pineapple whip, and a hint of zesty ginger with a soft, just-so bitterness in the finish. This is modern West Coast IPA in rare form– you’ll find no Citra nor Mosaic here– but we promise that the Ghost Town and Breakside brought our A-game to this expressive and aromatic banger.
