We dedicate this beer to all you hop heads looking to unwind after a hard day. In Hawaiian, “pau hana” (pronounced “pow hawna”) translates as “work is finished,” meaning, in this context, “let’s kick off the tropical hop party!” This version of Pau Hana Tropical IPA has an IPA as its base, and it’s infused with a POG blend (passionfruit, orange, guava) plus coconut to create a tiny tropical paradise in every glass. Layers of citrus hop flavors and aromas intertwine with the seductive flavors of passionfruit, orange and guava. Extensively dry hopped, this beer has an intense fruity hop character and mild malt flavor. While we’re teaching you about the culture, passionfruit in Hawaiian is Liliko’i (“lee-lee-co-e”). This Small Tank Series beer won’t be available for long.

6-7% ABV 45-55 IBUs
