Knee Deep Breaking Bud

Knee Deep Breaking Bud

Domestic Beer-Package

Description: Old school meets new school in this fresh approach to the classic Ipa. At 50 IBU's and 6.5% Abv, Breaking Bud features the restrained bitterness and alcohol of a classic Ipa with newer tropical fruit hop flavors and aromas of Mosaic. Also in the hop mix are Simcoe and Ctz, creating layers of mango, passion fruit, pine and dank. A malt bill with a pinch of crystal malt and a hefty dose of flaked wheat keeps the beer crisp while adding flavor complexity. Technical notes Malts:Crystal Hops:Simcoe, Ctz, Mosaic Color:Pale Yellow / Golden Original Gravity:Plato Bittering Units:50 Alcohol by Volume:6.5%. Producer Knee Deep Brewing Co. is a family run independent Microbrewery that was born in the late Summer of 2010. When Knee Deep first started producing beer we started out "contract brewing" our beers at Mt. Tallac Brewing in beautiful Lake Tahoe. At first we only sold a few styles of beer (kegs only) within the Reno / Nevada market. We soon began to flourish much faster than anticipated, and thats when all the fun started! In the first quarter of 2011, the company reached an agreement to lease the former Beermann's Brewery in Lincoln, Ca. During the renovation and startup phase Knee Deep's beers continued to be contract brewed in the Bay Area of California. In May 2011, our first batch of beer was brewed in our Lincoln brewery. Over time we phased out the contract brewing and eventually all our beers were brewed at our Lincoln facility. At that time we had two Uc Davis trained brewers operating 7 days a week. At first, our beers could be found throughout California, Arizona, Nevada, Ohio, and Idaho. In 2012 we had started our "Loading Dock Friday Growler Sales", where it was possible to purchase a growler of the freshest possible Knee Deep beer directly from the brewery (rain or shine.) Growler sales were, as described, conducted at the loading dock, and man those are some amazing memories! Knee Deep Brewing's beers have received several awards; most recently and notably, our Breaking Bud Ipa taking the Bronze Medal in the American Ipa category at the 2016 Great American Beer Festival (you can view all our prestigious awards inside our taproom in Auburn.) Knee Deep Brewing Company has a rapidly growing reputation as we are known for our unique blends and creative outlook on brewing. We take pride in our reputation and strive to continue brewing outstanding craft beers. Fast forward to 2017, Knee Deep's beers are now brewed in our 28,000 square foot facility in Auburn, Ca. Our 15 barrel brew house has been replaced with a 40 barrel 4 vessel system. Our 15 barrel fermenters are no more and we now ferment our beers in 60, 90, and 120 barrel tanks. Our year round offerings now total 16 and we also produce monthly special releases and seasonal beers. We also barrel age a limited quantity of specialty beers which are periodically released in our taproom. 22oz and 12oz bottles, cans, and kegs, can all be found filled with our wonderful liquid. "Loading Dock Fridays" are gone as well. Instead of standing in a back alley to purchase a growler of our beer, visitors can now purchase growlers, crowlers, bottles, and or cans in our beautiful tasting room (which by the way is larger than our previous Lincoln brewery.) Our tasting room offers an unobstructed view of brewery operations, and guests can enjoy samples of our beer while watching us brew, filter, and or even packaging our products. Oh hey, I forgot to mention that our taproom is pet and kid friendly! Thats right, fill free to bring your little ones and furry ones along with you for the fun! Our brewmaster, Dean Roberts, has been with us for 5 years and is continuing our tradition of brewing only the finest craft beers.
