MURKELEY (Batch 10) 🐻⁠

Murky Double IPA with Southern Cross, Simcoe, & Citra Cryo⁠

We’ve teamed up with our Berkeley-based friends at Fieldwork Brewing for the 10th year in a row to create this velvety, medium-bodied bear of a brew. The combination of Southern Cross, Simcoe, and Citra Cryo hops creates mouthwatering notes of pineapple, apricot, and passionfruit that are followed by a ridiculously smooth finish. Murkeley is a timeless murky DIPA, curated with the palates of IPA lovers in mind.⁠

Sunlit Motion is our new West Coast IPA that absolutely shines. Brewed with Mosaic hops from Loftus Ranch in Washington, plus our new Nelson Sauvin haul and Dolcita Abstrax, it dances with bright aromas of grapefruit zest and peach. This medium-bodied beer carries vibrant notes of dank resin, lemon, and pineapple, with a lingering bitterness that will keep you ready for your next sip.⁠

Today, the juice IS worth the squeeze as we welcome back the highly requested I Choose Yuzu alongside a Pure classic, Super Beta. 🍻
⁠
I CHOOSE YUZU⁠ 🍋
Japanese-Style Rice Lager with Yuzu⁠
5.0% ABV | Limited Release⁠
⁠
What do you get when you mix a Japanese-style lager with a twist of East Asian citrus? It’s not a joke; it’s I Choose Yuzu, a fan-favorite, now available in cans! This brew started as an idea from a game at a Pure Project team outing and sounded so delicious that we had to make it a reality. Featuring flaked rice for an extra-dry base and organic yuzu for a bright touch of citrus, I Choose Yuzu bursts with flavors of lemon zest, subtle grapefruit, and rice cracker. Its light body and refreshing qualities leave an unforgettable impression, making I Choose Yuzu a brew you’ll choose time and time again.

SUPER BETA 💥
Murky IPA with Nelson, Motueka, Southern Cross, & Mosaic Cryo⁠
6.5% ABV | Limited Release⁠
⁠
Super Beta is one of our original murky IPAs. For this longtime fan-favorite, we blend a trio of New Zealand-grown hops—Nelson Sauvin, Motueka, and Southern Cross—with a hefty addition of Washington-grown Mosaic Cryo. The result is a vibrant taste profile of juicy pineapple, mango, orange sorbet, and subtle mint that glides across the palate. Grab a can of Super Beta and enjoy the flow of flavors revealed with every sip.

Rind Over Matter is a fruited rice ale, built on a foundation of flaked rice and Admiral Pilsner malt before adding 10 gallons of calamansi puree.
