DROID DREAMS: KIWI & CALAMANSI + COSMIC IMBALANCE

On Sale: Saturday, January 22nd


Droid Dreams: Kiwi & Calamansi

EXPERIMENTAL SOUR // 6.0% // $16.9

NOTES: KIWI | LEMON | LIME

Late at night while the brewers dreamed of brewing clean lagers & classic IPAs, something in the brewery began to stir. From gaskets & tri-clamps to hoses & kegs, a little spark of life filled that which was once inanimate. Introducing the First State Brewing Droid…KV-1N! With his sense of whimsy abound, he knew the first thing he wanted to do was brew his very own beer! For hops, he picked out the experimental HBC 630 & Strata, known for their complex notes of raspberry, cherry, strawberry, peach, & passion fruit. To finish his experimentation, he added a healthy portion of Kiwi & Calamansi to the beer, giving a tart and tropical citrus finish. We sure can’t wait to see where KV-1N's delicious studies lead him next…

Cosmic Imbalance

HAZY IPA WITH MILK SUGAR // 6.0% // $16.9

LOTUS | MANDARINA BAVARIA | CITRA

This one's for the hype boys and girls who love their "milkshake" IPAs... For this unique brew, we selected the characterful hops of Lotus, Mandarina Bavaria, & Citra…think tropical notes of orange, tangerine, grapefruit, & even vanilla. Further still, we brewed with a moderate dose of lactose & orange zest, and aged on Madagascar vanilla, giving a full-on creamsicle-like experience. While slightly sweet, our version of a Hazy IPA with milk sugar remains balanced, drinkable, & noticeably hop-forward.

CONSTANT MAYHEM + LOST UBIQUITY

On Sale: Saturday, January 8th


Constant Mayhem

DDH HAZY DIPA // 8.0% // $18.9

LEMONDROP | CASHMERE | MOTUEKA

Two short words that describe the day in and day out here at First State: Constant. Mayhem. For our latest Double Dry Hopped Hazy Double IPA we thought we’d use this as inspiration by flipping the script on our usual go-to hops. Lemondrop, Cashmere, & Motueka hops smash together creating tropical notes of lemon-lime, citrus zest, melon, & stone fruit. All jokes aside, without the dedication of our awesome team…and just a little bit of chaos…we wouldn’t get to create delicious beers for you fine folks as a living.
