Brewer's Notes

ONI is a beer name and idea I've had in the back of my mind since before we opened. At one point, we were going to open with it. Well, here we are 5 years later...


5 years ago it seemed like every hazy IPA was just Citra and Mosaic. I didn't feel the need to add to that, but I knew it was such a popular combo for a reason. That combo is the Obligatory New-england Ipa blend (or O.N.I. sort of!). I thought that name was a little too snarky so I held off, and didn't brew a Citra+Mosaic beer until 3 or so years in.


Onis are also a part of Japanese mythology - a yokai, or demon/ghost - usually represented as powerful giant ogre. I wanted to brew a Triple IPA, and figured it's time to put the name to use. Citra and Mosaic hops are here en force, along with yuzu fruit flavoring, to make it a little more Japanesque and to add a bright, acidic counterpoint to the hefty malt bill.


It's 10.7% ABV so watch out!
