Collaboration with @ealvarezfight
Featuring the hops Motueka CGX, El Dorado, & Simcoe
We brewed this crushable hoppy lager as a special anniversary week collaboration with Philly native Eddie Alvarez, legendary American mixed martial artist and former lightweight champion of the @ufc and @bellatormma.
Drawing inspiration from Eddie’s remarkable journey from Kensington, Philadelphia to the pinnacle of mixed martial arts, this beer reflects his relentless pursuit of greatness and embodies the spirit of resilience, determination, and passion.
Undrgrnd King was brewed with a base of heirloom Barke Pilsner and Vienna malts lightened with flaked rice.
We tossed some Cascade hops in the mash for a boost in thiol precursors, loaded the end of the boil and whirlpool with concentrated Motueka CGX pellets, and finally dry hopped this beer with a powerful one-two punch of El Dorado and Simcoe.
Undrgrnd King pours a brilliant light golden hue into a glass that shimmers in the light like a UFC title belt being photographed in the octagon by thousands after a huge win.
A crown of ivory foam quickly emerges atop this super fragrant brew and releases a flurry of hoppy combinations that will leave your olfactory system feeling punch drunk.
We get notes of lime mist, plump apricot, juicy watermelon, delicate grainy sweetness, pine resin, zesty orange, ripe pear, and back-notes of tropical pineapple and passionfruit.
