North Park’s The Original 40 Brewing will release Can We Kick It? West Coast IPA today. The limited-release beer will be available on draft and in four packs of 16-ounce cans.
Can We Kick it? is double dry-hopped with Strata, Mosaic, Mosaic Cryo, HBC 586 and HBC 586 Cryo hops. It is 6.6% alcohol-by-volume (ABV) and features aromas of pine, orange blossoms and citrus.
“We proudly present our latest homage to old-school West Coast IPAs, but one that uses our newest tricks and techniques,” says Head Brewer Zack Kaplan. “It’s a great, drinkable beer this weekend and beyond for dads, grads and everyone in between.”
Can We Kick It? pays tribute to the song “Can I Kick It?” from the hip hop group A Tribe Called Quest, which originally released the track in 1990. The song appeared on New Musical Express’ “100 Best Songs of the 1990s” list.
“I guess you can say Zack made this latest brew with hip-hop hops,” said The Original 40 founder Steve Billings. “The only thing better than great beer is great beer that’s fun and might just get your feet tapping.”
