California founded brewery Lagunitas just had some big news this week. The company, which is known for their selection of IPAs, ales, and lagers, has added cannabis infused options to their offerings.
The new mix is called Supercritical and is an IPA made with marijuana terpenes. The marijuana terpenes are provided by CannaCraft, a California-based cannabis product manufacturer. The company produces cannabis vape cartridges under AbsoluteXtracts.
The beer has 6.8% alcohol by volume and the company said will feature grassy flavors, earthy hops, an da “sticky finish.”
There will be no THC in the beverage as Supercritical is made with cannabis terpenes that AbsoluteXtracts removes from the plants.
The company created just one batch of 60 barrels, or 120 kegs of the canna-infused IPA which were sent to bars across California, most of which are in the Bay area.
Karen Hamilton, Lagunitas’s director of communications said, “There may be more SuperCritical coming in the future, and this time, to other areas in the U.S.”
