Cold & Damp is a new West Coast L IPA brewed in collaboration with our good friends at Level Crossing and Omega Yeast. Every September during hop harvest we brew our Damp series of fresh hop beers. These beers capture the essence of freshly picked hops and are usually only available for a short period of time each year. However thanks to some innovations in hop processing we can now brew beers all year long that display that unique fresh hop character. For Cold & Damp we started with some new experimental whole cone hops in the mash and Hopback like we would during harvest. We used a brand new variety from Jackson Hop Farms that doesn’t have a name or number and only 70lbs of it exist. We then dry hopped with Cryo fresh Mosaic & Krush as well as some Nelson Fresh Pressed Hop Juice from Freestyle Farms in NZ . This hop juice is extracted from freshly picked wet hops before they’re kilned and really expresses the bright, green character of freshly picked Nelson. Something we’ve never experienced before. The end result is a crisp and somewhat clear 5% IPA that exudes fresh hop character. There’s a nice blend of dank, herbaceous aromas and bright tropical and citrus notes.
