Best Occasion to Drink: Right now!
Brewer's Notes:
The lightest of our year-round offerings, Extra Naked* packs a whole lot into a deceptively small package, which is why it's the perennial brewers' favorite! It's nice 'n dry and there's a bit of citrusy hop character and a bit of spicy yeast character and it rewards deeper inspection and reflection, but you're also not gonna feel like you missed out if you just happen to drink it and then look around for more. It's a surprisingly complex lil' easy drinkin' beer, and you should probably definitely drink some!
*Despite being our favorite beer that we make, this is one of the hardest to sell people on (assuming we don't have samples). "What the hell is a cream ale?" they ask. Truth be told, this beer sits more-or-less-directly between a pilsner and a saison, but it turns out there isn't a word for that. Nomenclature aside, this beer is light and crisp and has an ever-so-slight spiciness that'll keep you bendin' your elbow until you run out and you need to go get more.
