Galaxy S.M.A.S.H. and other news!

Galaxy SMASH getting filtered
Hey Y'all, hope you're having a good summer, because you better get it while it's still here. You lovely beer drinkers blew through the Summer Ale and Honey Blonde like it was oxygen! Nice work. For rotators on we have Beetlekill American Brown, Goat Effer English Pale, and now...............GALAXY S.MA.S.H. IPA!!!

What the hell is S.M.A.S.H. you say? Single Malt And Single Hop you silly! That means we take ONE malt (a delicious Northwest Pale Malt) and mix it with water, then add ONE hop (Galaxy oh how we love thee so) in 4 hop additions, double dry hop it with Galaxy and what you get is the essence of the hop. All hop bitterness, flavor, aroma and turbines are from Galaxy, and amazing tropical fruit, star fruit, papaya, melon, pina colada (minus the coconut), and citrus flavors are all from ONE glorious hop. Straight outta South Australia, the lovely, the one and only---- Galaxy!
