Instant Krush
A cloudy, pale yellow West Coast IPA built around one hop, Krush. Stone fruit and tropical fruit burst from the glass, think mango, guava and peach, followed by orange, a hint of berries and a light resinous kick. Chapter 1 of Jopen's 2026 series, brewed with White Frontier after the two breweries met at a festival in Turin; 7.0% ABV.
