Knee Deep Brewing Co. Breaking Bud IPA

David Kline

White haired and tight to loose as a sea sponge. Surf foam to egg white in a forgotten cocktail. But all the look and promise of the Nkisi Nkondi haunting its surface eerily, while below the orange yellow of a duck’s egg yolk stands ready to form. Crystalline ruby grapefruit nose, with orange, tangerine and lime, pear, iced tea with lemon, balsa, gooseberry and brine. Forceful as a dandelion pushing up through alluvial dust, the entry seems briary and pollinatory. Oregano and dried cactus. Hemp crystals prevail; grapefruit coating white pine. Love the lack of malt here. This is a fantastic dry IPA bursting with airborne crystallized creative juices! Nothing sticky and slow here, pure magic.

Allan Katz

Good stuff. Not mind-blowing, but a real nice, even, west coast IPA.

Antonio Gianola

Delicious and not over the top hoppy.

Ned Gray Creed

I don’t remember this one. Found the photo in my phone. The sign of a good Super Bowl party.

Bert Robinson

This was the third ranked IPA at the Great American Beer Festival and the only one of the top three that is bottled for sale. For me it is not as good as Pliny the Elder or Knee Deep's own Citra, but it is still very enjoyable

Kia Almeida

Labels cool. Beer is aight.

Vinod Peris

Nice golden color with hints of apricots. Not too hoppy and very nice clean finish. Nice afternoon beer that is not too heavy on the alcohol (6.5%).
