El Segundo Ochos Locos

IPA – Imperial / Double 8.8 ABVCommercial Description:Eight years ago?El?Segundo?(the city) didn¡¯t even know what a Double IPA was. Los Angeles county had FIVE breweries in it and we knew all the owners on a first name basis. If you wanted a craft beer you had to go to just a handful of places to find one.For our very first anniversary we brought Two 5 Left to life. A beefed-up version the IPA we had been successful with all year Blue House IPA. Simcoe heavy and amber in color this is the IPA of a different time now. Each year after that we brought something fun to the table but I wasn¡¯t until year 5 that we brewed the current iteration of our anniversary offering. A huge multi-hop blend on top of a malt profile so thin It disappears when it turns sideways. Over 8 and CRAZY over-hopped but somehow light as a feather. Finding balance inside the imbalance?Each year we tinker with the hop profile but honestly don¡¯t mess with perfection. This year 8 hops for 8 years.
