Description from the Brewer: I'm on a mission. A mission to make some of the hops from my earlier brewing career sing. Palisade hops out of Yakima were used frequently in a delightful session IPA at a brewery I worked for years ago, and I thought it would also be quite lovely in this Self Care iteration. Using local base malts that were grown and malted in Washington State, we worked in some Munich and Oats, which made for a great combination in many of the pales ales that I've been inspired by. The supporting hops in this beer are Amarillo and Galena. We did a smaller volume of hops in the whirlpool in addition to a small pellet dry hop addition to balance the bitterness of the kettle hops. We're really digging the apricot, lemon, and floral notes they put off. -Aaron

WARNING: similar to many juices, kombucha, and other beverages you'll find in the grocery store, this product has not been pasteurized, and therefore may contain harmful bacteria that can cause serious illness in children, the elderly, and persons with weakened immune systems.

PLEASE NOTE: like other beverage industries have been doing for centuries, we mitigate the potential for bacterial growth in other ways, rather than to pasteurize and destroy the nuanced flavors that make our beer stand out from many pasteurized non-alcoholic beer offerings, though we do acknowledge pasteurization is the most effective way to inhibit bacterial growth, or potential for refermentation in the can. Risk may be exacerbated by prolonged warm storage, so to mitigate risk, always cold-store Self Care immediately upon receipt, and avoid exposure to extreme heat.
