EQUILIBRIUM HALF FULL DOUBLE IPA
On tap at Ambulance, ‘vivid yellow’ lactose-aided moderate-medium body collaboration with nearby District 96 resonates as lime-juiced passionfruit, pineapple and tangerine tanginess plus mild coconut-flaked sweetness reach lightly creamed caramel malt base in clean fashion.
STONE LIQUID POEM DOUBLE IPA
On tap at Andy’s Corner Bar, zestful orange-peeled grapefruit bittering and peachy tangerine licks gain resinous spruce-tipped pining and grassy hop astringency over caramelized pale malts for dry West Coast-styled IPA one step better than middle-of-the-road pack.
PIPEWORKS NVU VS. THE CRYO DOUBLE INDIA PALE ALE
Zestful lemon-candied grapefruit peel and orange rind bittering and pineapple salted mango goodness gain dank wet-leafed resin and grassy floral wisps as liquid nitrogenated hops intensify brisk crisping. Pasty pale malting coats biscuity bottom at clean citrus-spiced finish.
TREE HOUSE JULIUS INDIA PALE ALE
Zesty lemony grapefruit sunshine spikes juniper-licked pine resin and pungent cannabis reminder as yogurt-soured peach, passionfruit and mango salting crests atop mildly creamed caramel malting. Exhilarating.
MAGNIFY NELSON THRILL INDIA PALE ALE
Briskly sharp lemony grapefruit-peeled pineapple and orange tang embittered by sturdy pine tone dryness contrasting less prominent floral-daubed crystal malt sugaring. Salted gooseberry, guava and passionfruit-inspired Nelson Sauvin hop souring stays subtle (despite promotional moniker) for steadfast hazy IPA.
TIMBER ALES / RESIDENT CULTURE INTROS IN THE SAND INDIA PALE ALE
Vibrant yellow marble-hazed IPA collab with North Carolina’s Resident Culture gleams with dry-hopped Citra-Mosaic tropical fruiting, woody Simcoe hop herbage and dank clay resin. Sunny lemon spritz splatters wispy grapefruit, mandarin orange and clementine tang.
SHORT THROW LITTLE LUNGS INDIA PALE ALE
Straight-up piney citrus spicing stays perfectly centrist for scaled down version of brewers’ Lips and Lungs Double IPA. Candi-coated grapefruit-peeled orange rind pleasantry retains light back end bittering reinforced by dry wood tones (and wispy alcohol esters) over a crusty French bread spine.
KCBC DANGEROUS PRECEDENT IPA
On tap at Seven Lakes Station, radiant lemon zesting sparkles alongside juicy tangerine, grapefruit, mango, peach and clementine tang above creamed pale malt spicing. Resinous pine tones lightly embitter sunny citrus finish.

TORCH & CROWN RESET PALE ALE

TORCH & CROWN SHARE HOUSE SUMMER ALE
On tap at Ambulance, stylishly dryer and richer kolsch (labeled a summer ale) brings dry-hopped lemon rind bittering and lightly vinous green grape tartness to casual orange oiling over bready mineral-grained pilsner malting.
