The Experience, Emeryville: Wondrous Brewing New Release

The Experience:

Getting HAZY in Emeryville!

The sun is out. The rain has stopped. It’s time to come together again on the patio at Wondrous! Try their first batch of true Hazy IPA! They brought Flightwave back into the world of Haze – Flightwave – Hazy IPA 7.0% abv.

Hopped with Citra, El Dorado Cryo, Motueka & Mosaic. Officially the haze has came to Wondrous! They strived to make the softest, fluffiest beer they could with a restrained bitterness and maximized as much hop flavor as possible. Brewed with floor malted Pilsner, then fermented with a true expressive yeast strain, they went for a full lean into the mysterious world of thiols (derived from hops, yielding a fruity flavor). BIG juicy stone fruit, citrus and tropical aromatics, with a hefty yet balanced mouthfeel and some lingering hop resin! Cans were officially released on Valentine’s Day in Emeryville!

A full board of 16 different beers on tap –  8 Lagers, 8 Ales + 7 Different available Can options To-Go await you! Hungry? Explore the corner of 65th & Hollis! They are surrounded by a handful of amazing eateries! Good to Eat Dumplings, Los Moles, Rotten City Pizza (will deliver!), Secrets of Tiger, KYU2 Sushi, to name a few.
