The mid-90s, called they want their drink back. This beer is an homage to the ubiquitous, cherry blossom-draped glass bottle of AriZona green tea with honey and ginseng that was available in every corner store and gas station.

This easy-drinking hazy NEIPA is simple, but full of flavor. A hybrid strain of yeast plus raw wheat provides complexity and the canvas for a blend of hops. We skipped the boil and leaned on a whirlpooled and dry hop to provide a pleasing mix of fruit, earth, and spice.

YEAST Wild
On the last cool night of March we collect three separate samples of wild yeast from the backyard and slowly build them up into thriving cultures to eventually inoculate a beer built on Virginia-grown pilsner and Vienna that pours a straw yellow with moderate amounts of barnyard funk and spice.
