    Nectar IPA is a damn fine brew.
    i had thought for a long time it was some fruit ale or something because it doesn't say IPA in large print on the six pack holder, but has a big picture of a hummingbird.

    turns out, its crazy delicious.

    interesting, they are part of the firestone-walker brewing company at this point.

    says on the website that the hemp ale is available only in california due to legal restrictions... FZ, when did you move to cali?

    i've never tried it, due to the fact that i'm not a dirty hippy.

    but i did have a conversation about hemp seeds in beer with a homebrew shop cashier many years ago. he said they add kind of a nuttyness that's fairly unique.
