Player: Bitter Woman IPA
Team: Tyranena Brewing Company
Player Stats: We use a variety of malts to create this luscious, heady ale. From rich Caramel malt, creating a deep amber hue, to Carapils, which aids in both mouthfeel and foam retention. Expect a lacy head to last the duration of your glass. For the hop lover, this IPA boasts intense bitterness from the Warrior hop and floral, citrus notes derived from a combination of Cascade and Amarillo. Especially of the Amarillo,
anticipate a nose-full of pine forest and grapefruit zest. Hops are added at multiple stages of the
brewing process and we finish by dry-hopping with a huge heap of more Amarillo. The true “hop-head” can look forward to a complex taste from the Bitter Woman; a juicy bite with a touch of malty sweetness, followed by a lingering finish and a lasting aftertaste that will make you crave for more!

Nor Cal IPA
Moylan's Brewery
|
Player: Caged Alpha Monkey IPA
Team: CB's
Player Stats:A bright orange hop bomb, this IPA is brewed as an American East Coast IPA. This means we use our European specialty malts with American hops for a new kind of American IPA. We use new “front-hopping” technology to introduce whole leaf American hops to the beer before it even reaches the kettle. We use a healthy dose of Caramunich malt to give this beer a bright orange color and enough body to balance the hops. We use cutting edge hop varieties Citra and Ahtanum in 6 additions for full flavor and aroma. These hops blend together to create a crazy mix of pineapple, grapefruit and pine aromas that just screams American IPA! This awesome ale pairs well with other strong flavors such as aged natural cheeses, spicy sushi, curry, etc. Truly an IPA that sets a new standard for brewers and beers lovers on both coasts. Cheers!
