Pivo Pils | Firestone Walker

Pivo Hoppy Pilsner –
Pivo Hoppy Pils is a classically rendered pilsner with a West Coast dry-­‐hopping twist, showcasing stylistic influences from Germany, Italy and the Czech Republic. Lighter beer styles like pilsner have been hijacked by industrial lager beer in the United States, and it’s time for craft brewers to take it back. Pivo Hoppy Pils offers impeccable balance with floral aromatics, spicy herbal nuances, and bergamot zest and lemongrass notes from dry hopping with German Saphir hops.

Union Jack | Firestone Walker

Union Jack West Coast style IPA –
Union Jack rings all of the bells of an aggressively hopped West Coast IPA, but with an astonishing balance that stands out from the crowd.  The name Union Jack is a nod to the colonial origins of the IPA style, and to the British expatriate who co­‐founded our brewery. This originator of our “Jack” IPA family is double dry‐hopped to create bold grapefruit, tangerine and citrus flavors, all contrasted by pale malt sweetness to rein in the intensity. The result is a tribute to—and a twist on—the IPA style that put the West Coast on the craft beer map.

Easy Jack Session IPA | Firestone Walker

easy-jack-ipa-firestone-walker

Easy Jack Session IPA –
Easy Jack came about when Brewmaster Matt Brynildson went to the mountain top and returned with a vision for a different kind of Session IPA, one that would be brewed and dry hopped with a globetrotting selection of newer hop varieties from Germany, New Zealand and North America. He foresaw a beer that would deliver massive hop aromas, surprising dimension, a signature malt balance and an empty glass before you knew what hit you. And so the newest member of the Jack IPA family was born.
