Pizza Port Kook Double IPA

Kook Double IPA is a beer that was previously only produced on draft at Pizza Port Bressi Ranch but has now been packaged.

Sales began in the United States on June 18, 2015, bringing Pizza Port's standard lineup to include Sessionable IPA, Single IPA, and Double IPA.

The name Kook comes from a bronze statue in San Diego.

Matthew Antichevich, an Encinitas surfer and instructor at Mount San Jacinto College, was commissioned by the Cardiff Botanical Society to create the bronze statue with a budget of $92,000.

A bronze statue of a surfer built next to a campground at San Elijo State Beach was mocked for its "unmanly" appearance, and was dressed up in various costumes, including a clown, Santa Claus, and Zorro.

Because of its appearance, locals began calling the statue "Cardiff Kook".

The beer has a clean body thanks to the use of only two-row barley and pilsner malt, and the hops are El Dorado, Melon, Chinook, CTZ and large amounts of Amarillo. It is dry-hopped twice to give it a full, fruity hop flavor.

When poured into a glass, it has a beautiful golden color with white foam on top, and the intense aroma of grapefruit, mandarin orange, citrus, and pine hits you.

The palate features citrus, pine resin, lush grass and tropical fruit.

Very dry and bitter finish with a lingering bitterness on the tongue.

Despite its strong character, it has no alcoholic taste and is highly drinkable.

A masterpiece double IPA dedicated to those who cherish the "slightly strange self" within themselves.
