    From Coast to Coast

    “These are flavor profiles that you wouldn’t normally see in a hazy beer,” says James Conery, our Innovation Brewmaster, highlighting Rad’s resinous pine, bright citrus, and solid 50 IBU. This West Coast hop character is thanks to varieties including Chinook, Magnum and Citra, which make appearances in other West-leaning beers of ours like Torpedo IPA and Celebration IPA.

    Absent are the East Coast staples of juicy or tropical, but Rad Little Thing for sure brings the haze — the smooth and full soul of a Hazy IPA. “It softens the hop bite a little bit,” says Isaiah Mangold, Head Innovation Brewer, “but they’re very much edgy, which I think is pretty cool.” So whether you’re a West Coaster who’s dodged hazies or an East Coaster wary of bitterness, Rad hits that 50-50 flavor we can all raise a glass to.
