Two brand-new microbrews -- the 'Imperial West Coast IPA' and the 'Hazy West Coast IPA -- will be made available by San Diego-based Green Flash Brewing Company. In addition, the year-round selection will be offered nationwide in 12-ounce cans.
Green Flash's new portfolio of core brews celebrates the origin of The West Coast IPA, which helped establish West Coast-style IPAs worldwide. The company's newest IPAs are made with layers of pine, floral, and citrus and feature six distinct types of hops.
“These new beers are a celebration of the beloved West Coast-style IPAs, and our new packaging and branding reinforce our roots in San Diego, a special community that has consistently contributed to the prominent craft beer lifestyle. Green Flash is one of the original San Diego craft beers, and we’ll always have a deep connection to the people, coastline, and surrounding waters,” said Aaron Grossman, creative and brand director.
