Grails are watched nightly — you get word the morning this one is first seen. Every Brix City Brewing filing? Follow the brewery.
This filing went on record 26 May 2026, before the beer reached a shelf. Every week's new filings, read and delivered Tuesday morning.
This is the 87th of 200 label filings we hold from Brix City Brewing. It is one of 17 west coast ipa labels approved in May 2026. It cleared 4 days after it was filed. The label names 2 hops — MJF Hop Blend and Simcoe, and carries dry-hopped on the front. The label carries the Brewers Association independent seal.
A dense ornamental composition fills the entire label with interlocking geometric and organic motifs in a psychedelic register: stylised hop cones in green and yellow, spiralling blue and cream flourishes, sun-face emblems, and interwoven botanical forms create a full-bleed pattern. The beer name "fonio wave" appears in large white bubble letters at centre, flanked by a white banner bearing "WEST COAST STYLE PILSNER" below. The regulatory and brewery information occupies a cream-coloured vertical panel along the left edge.
From the label“Front label explicitly states 'WEST COAST STYLE PILSNER' in the upper left. Back label confirms 'WEST COAST STYLE PILSNER' and notes 'BREWED WITH FONIO GRAIN & DRY HOPPED WITH MJF HOP BLEND & SIMCOE'. The style is unambiguously declared as West Coast Style Pilsner. However, the label also states 'WEST COAST STYLE PILSNER' which is technically a pilsner designation, but the back label's dry-hopping language and the overall branding align with West Coast IPA characteristics. Re-reading: the explicit label says 'WEST COAST STYLE PILSNER' twice. This is a pilsner, not an IPA. Correcting to pilsner.”

The filing names its hops — MJF Hop Blend, Simcoe — which is enough for a real starting point.
