THREE 3’S AZZACA IPA
On tap at Taphouse 15, sessionable hop-forward IPA features easygoing tropical Azzaca hop profile. Less fruitful than typical stylish fare, its wispily wood-dried citrus bittering stays mild above herbaceous pale malts. Murky lemon-dried grapefruit, orange, mango and pineapple illusions waver.
EVIL GENIUS #ADULTING

EVIL TWIN RETRO IPA
“Iconic” 1985-styled Americanized IPA layers lemony grapefruit, pineapple and orange tang above bready cereal-grained malting and freshly cut-grass hop astringency. Modest herbal snip, light pine resin wisp and aspirin-like chalking scrape the metallic edges. Stylishly thin and insubstantial.
EVIL TWIN CHARLIE WORK IPA
