SHADOW OF THE MOON
We released a quad IPA for our 4th anniversary… so we thought it only natural to release a quint for our 5th! Yep, the strongest beer we have ever brewed, and in IPA form!
SHADOW OF THE MOON
Murky Quintuple IPA with Nelson Sauvin, Strata, Mosaic, Citra, & Cashmere Hops
15% ABV
For our 5th anniversary, we wanted to challenge ourselves as a craft brewery and push the limits of our fermentation skills. Coming in at 15% ABV, this murky quintuple IPA is the strongest beer we have ever brewed at Pure Project. Featuring our five favorite hops–Nelson Sauvin (Freestyle Hops, NZ), Strata (Indie Hops, OR), Mosaic (Loftus Ranches, WA), Citra (Wyckoff Farms, WA), and Cashmere (Gooding Farms, ID)–Shadow of the Moon is a true celebration of hops and the farmers who grew them. At 8 pounds of hops per barrel, this is easily the most heavily dry hopped beer we have made. The result? A subtly warming and stunningly smooth brew bursting with notes of ripe pineapple, honeydew, and a whole lot of dank. Cheers to five years!
Price: $27 / 4-pack

friday, jan 22 – specialty bottle release
COULD BE AN ILLUSION
We’ve got a specialty stout on the horizon… and a special batch of coffee beans to go with it!
COULD BE AN ILLUSION
Imperial Stout with Coffee & Maple Syrup
11.6% ABV
As part of our 5-year festivities, we are proud to introduce our anniversary stout, Could Be an Illusion–the first in a series of core stouts we’ll bring to you this year. An imperial stout with organic, extra dark maple syrup from Vermont and organic Villa de Zamora coffee from Peru (roasted by our friends at Mostra), this brew packs a distinctive flavor punch thanks to the adjuncts being recirculated into the brew just before bottling. Also looming from its jet-black color and tan head are flavors of milk chocolate, baklava, and nuttiness from the freshly roasted coffee. A velvety and decadent full body will make you question whether it is real and magical, or just an illusion.
Price: $26 / 22oz
As a bonus, we’re also releasing a very limited run of the same coffee beans that went into the beer! They will be released for pickup in our taprooms only. Here’s the details on the coffee beans:
COULD BE AN ILLUSION
Peruvian Villa De Zamora
A full bodied dark roast with notes of fudge, roasted cashews, negroni, and browned butter.
Price: $22 / 12oz
