This week I think it's time I showcase one of my favorite microbreweries at the moment. Known for its immature artwork and prominence among beer gardens and bars alike. Out of Auburn, Cal. comes Knee Deep Brewing.With names like "Breaking Bud", "Hoptologist", and "Hop-De-Ranged"; combined with the unmistakable artwork, it's nearly impossible not to notice at least one of Knee Deep's brews. My solid go-to on the list of beers has to be the "Hoptologist" double IPA. It's crisp, dank, and a little citric. It's hard-hitting, and does the job ever-so deliciously. Just like any good double IPA. I picked up a bottle of that beer just this past weekend, along with a new brew out of Knee Deep. The Tahoe Deep IPA.
I went into this purchase not expecting much. I don't usually give into the whole art on the can thing. All I care about is whatever beer is inside. To me, the simplistic artwork on the can smelled of over-hyped hipster praise. This didn't stop me from picking up 64 ounces of it. Man, was I glad I picked up 64 ounces of it.
For an IPA, it's refreshing, slightly creamy, just a tad dank, and it left a small crisp pine after taste. If I'm at a bar filled with craft brews I have yet to try, and I see this on the menu, I will always start with the Tahoe Deep IPA.
That is all. Drink Responsibly.
