From the label“This iteration of the Beach Rat series showcases one of the original hops used in many hop forward beers, Simcoe. This classic hop has a wonderful balance of both fruit and pine, giving off aromatics of pine resin, apricot, all passion fruit. At Core, we're a proud force, from all walks and all schools, bound together by our insatiable desire to create a beer worth hanging our lives on. Our product is crafted with the diligence and pride of small-town America, delivered with the hospitality for which the South is known. TAKE PRIDE is our battle cry, our oath, our commitment to you.”
