CYCLHOPS HBC 586
SINGLE HOPPED IPA
Was the cyclops misunderstood? Known throughout time as the man-eating, one-eyed giant, his revenge on the Greek hero Odysseus incited one of the greatest epic adventures of all time. Perhaps the Cyclops’ lone peeper symbolized a cosmic third eye, responsible for foresight of historic proportions… Something to ponder while you enjoy this slightly citrusy single-hopped IPA – A balanced ale with HBC 586 passion fruit and pineapple character – That may open the gate to a different outlook on things.
