Just like you in PE, our Simcoe is always picked first. To harness this hop’s complex citrus and tropical flavours, we use only the youngest flowers picked early in the season and perfectly preserved as pellets or frozen powder.
A north London take on the West Coast style - the inspiration behind the brewing of this beer. We love Simcoe so much we used it at 4 stages of the brewing process, in two super concentrated forms (T90 Pellets and Lupulin Cryo powder. Fancy, eh?) to really bring out the tropical fruit flavours.
So, here it is… our first ‘official’ IPA. IPA wasn’t always on the menu for us, but like the chef serving that secret burger at your favourite bistro, we couldn’t resist making a few. They were strictly off menu - until now. And now everyone can order Off Menu, our not-so-secret IPA.
