| Brewery: Prairie Artisan Ales |
| Name of Beer: Prison Rodeo |
| Beer Style: Imperial IPA |
| Description: We have been using coffee in beer for years. What began with Bomb! eventually made an appearance in Okie and Noir. Roast and chocolate and dark flavors dominated these beers. They were what most people would expect from a coffee beer. While loving these beers we also knew we could do a lot more with coffee. We knew there was an array of flavors in coffee and beer that would be great together. We wanted to take a different approach. Prison Rodeo is that approach to coffee and beer. We started with a beer (maybe it was an IPA) full of juicy and citrus hops. It was about as far as we could get from a stout. We needed a coffee to stand up to and compliment the hops. We needed a coffee that was just as fruity and refreshing. Our friends at Spaceship Earth Coffee sourced multiple samples for us to pick from. After cupping numerous coffees this natural-process Ethiopia Sidamo Guji really stood out. We could tell the coffee was going to add another dimension to the beer. We were careful to add just enough coffee to amplify but not dominate the beer. In the glass the beer is full of those bright, delicate fruit aromas before fading into a slight but noticeable roast aroma. 12 ounce bottle |

Brewed with a dash of spelt and a healthy late hop addition this fine, frothy friend was fermented warm to perfect attenuation and carbed up high for a flavor that is at once bright, rich, juicy and ultra crisp. Strut your stuff, man. 16 ounce can |

| Description: Our Belgo-Style Dry-Hopped Pale Ale is a summer session beer extraordinaire; light and spritzy, fermented to brut-like dryness with our Saison yeast. If you liked our Petite Saison, Puck, you’ll love this variation on the theme infused with Citra, Simcoe, and Mosaic hops for a sunny, tropical finish. 6 pack bottles |
| Status: Restock |
| Brewery: Oskar Blues |
| Name of Beer: Fugli |
| Beer Style: IPA |
| Description: Yuzu and Ugli fruit infusions twisted together with the blueberry, tangerine notes of Mosaic make for a tangy, juicy, zesty array of aroma and flavor. Salivation will instantly ensue with one sniff of this crushable brew (5.8% ABV, 60 IBUs) that was inspired by a Yuzu brew we made with some brewing friends in Japan. 6 pack cans |
| Status: Limited |
| Brewery: Stone/Beavertown/Garage Project |
| Name of Beer: Fruitallica |
| Beer Style: Double IPA |
| Description: Glorious-crank-it-to-‘11’-cacophony is what happens when intense tropical fruit gets a flashpot addition of pyrotechnic heat from habanero. The result is a literal world tour, as three globe-trotting breweries collaborated on this immensely thunderous soundstorm of a beer. Masters of brewing Beavertown (UK) and Garage Project (New Zealand) worked with us in San Diego to brew this double IPA with a power trio of kiwi, yuzu and habanero. Yuzu and habanero, sure, but who knew kiwi fruit could be so metal. Add in a colossal hop character to ride the lightning of the subtle but fiery heat. Hops, fruit, heat…And Juiciness For All. Call up your mosh mates, crank up the tunes, throw this beer in the fridge and chill ‘em all. 22 ounce bottle |
