For this release of Grace and Grit we wanted to showcase one of our favorite hops. This batch is the first we’ve done to feature Amarillo hops, which throws a crazy melon and stone fruit aroma and taste. Historically, Grace and Grit has been a Citra-dominated beer. While we still use plenty of Citra, over 2lbs per bbl in fact, we wanted to layer in Amarillo to provide a depth of bitterness and aroma and not just a straight citrus bomb. The result is one of the most complex IPAs we have ever brewed and are pumped to share it with everyone.
Starting this Friday, 4pks will be available in the tasting room only this batch. No limit. Plenty of draft hitting the market next week

Jeebus. The last one got distributed in Arkansas. This one isn't even leaving the taproom.

Two down votes for complimenting Great Raft? Are the Parish fanboys so insecure that they've got to dog on other LA breweries, or is there some reason for a dislike of GR that I'm missing here?

When is it coming to Napa?

Oh wait, we are already covered up in quality NorCal DIPAs. I was just at the Ruhstaller tasting room on Sunday.

Insecurity because Great Raft makes the state's highest quality beers.
