Northern Hemisfuzz
A tropical-tasting hazy IPA with notes of pineapple, guava and strawberry, smooth and silky in the body. At 7 % it comes, as the brewery puts it, with a great terp burp. Lagunitas opened a second brewery in Chicago in 2014 and has brewed everything in Petaluma since it closed on 1 August 2024. Life Is Uncertain (don't sip) is one of the brewery's three simple truths.
