From the label

“Born At The Beach Our home is the beach, where in 1996 the original Pelican Brewing Company was born. Today we have taken our breweries and our values to other Oregon coastal towns where we wake up each day in a place that reminds us that amazing is possible. Cheers fellow fanatics. This is as good as it gets. What do hopheads love about hops? Great big punchy aromas. At Pelican Brewing we've been packing hop aroma into beer for over 20 years. Beak Breaker is our newest homage to aromatic innovation. With massive additions of Mosaic, Citra, and Centennial hops this beer delivers a bright citrus-tropical aroma with notes of ruby red grapefruit and sweet pine, blasting your olfactory sense...enough to break your beak! • Big Punchy Hops • Bright Gold Color • Citrus-Tropical Aroma • Inconceivably Drinkable •”
