(Saint John, NB) - Picaroons just brewed a small batch single malt/single hop (SMaSH) IPA at the Picaroons General Store in Uptown Saint John. Hippie IPA is a 6.3% ABV ale that was brewed using an American Ale yeast and uses all Maritime Malt and all local Nugget hops from LunaHops in Cornhill, New Brunswick. They will be tapping the Hippie IPA this Sunday, September 11th, at The Picaroons General Store along side an acoustic performance from Earthbound Trio at 3 PM.
Interesting fact is that 1/3 of the Earthbound Trio is Bob Fitzgerald of LunaHops who grew all of the Nugget Hops.
