Beer Description

Brewed with spruce tips, juniper berries, & whole Chinooks.

Some of you might remember “Tree Beer,” a beer we made with a then-nascent Faction Brewing. It was one of those off-the-wall one-offs, but you Tree Beer fans have been making yourselves heard ever since, so we have taken it upon ourselves to make your wishes come true, by brewing up Tree Beer’s sequel, Needs More Tree IPA.

Brewed the day after Christmas, this solo Drake’s brew day left the brewhouse smelling especially Christmasy, with pristine spruce tips, juniper berries, and whole Chinook hops in our hopback, as well as foraged pine branchescourtesy Berkeley’s own Foxglove Florals. A nice, drinkable ale with an interesting interplay between the spruce and hop elements.

Needs More Tree IPA will debut at First Friday
