SWEET WATER 420– EXTRA PALE ALE Made with Centennial and Cascade hops, 420 is Sweet Waters most popular beer. 420 Extra Pale Ale is a tasty West Coast Style Pale Ale with a good hop feel to it and a crisp finish. First brewed on April 20, 1997, this beer has developed quite the following in the Southeast. Per 12 fl. oz: 5.2 % ABV 156 Calories
SWEET WATER IPA – INDIAN PALE ALE The mammoth IPA is defined by generous quantities of premium hops and balanced with a premium selection of English malt. Traditionally unfiltered IPA’s lead to the slight haze appearance. An extensive dry-hopping process contributes to its very intense floral hop aroma. The IPA is unfiltered and as always, unpasteurized to leave all the natural flavors intact. Per 12 fl. oz: 4.8 % ABV 144 Calories SWEET WATER BLUE –FRUIT / VEGITABLE BEER Sweetwater Blue is unique lighter style ale enhanced with a hint of FRESH blueberry. When you drink this beer take a good whiff first and you’ll smell the blueberry influence, but on the taste it’s extremely subtle and the finish is extra clean. Known as a good breakfast beer, usually folks that are looking to quench their thirst or for those that are new to the “good beer” lifestyle; this is their choice. Per 12 fl. oz: 4.8 % ABV 144 Calories HOP HASH – DOUBLE IPA We scraped all the hash out of the Yakima hop pelletizers we could get our sticky fingers on to concoct the dankest double IPA out there. The pure hop lupulin, aka “hash” (the resiny stuff), meshes seamlessly with the 2-row, pilsner and wheat malts, allowing it to deliver a pungent punch to the palate.
