Cosmic Crusher Imperial IPA Beer Talk
If some beers pack a punch, then Cosmic Crusher packs an entire, full-blown, fists-thrown, high-kicking, and bodies-flying kung-fu movie action sequence.
This Imperial IPA is the star of our one of our Mind Haze episodes of Beer Talk, our original video series featuring Brewmaster Matt Brynildson. In this episode, Matt cracks open Cosmic Crusher and dives into what makes this beer truly out of this world: a juicy yeast strain, Galaxy hops, and explosive tropical flavors that hit with 9.5% ABV intensity.
If Mind Haze is a beer with training wheels, then Cosmic Crusher is the beer your dad is holding when he comes in hot, rips them off, and sends you screaming down the hill. So, grab your helmet, grab one from the fridge, and let’s wander Into The Haze.
A Bold Nod to the Imperial IPA Tradition
Strong Imperial IPAs have started to pop up all over the country, and Cosmic Crusher is our take on it. Less a spit shine and more a proper detailing on the style, Cosmic Crusher is loaded with explosive flavors of pineapple and mango. Every can is an invitation to mix juicy bliss with g-force (Great Beer Force), cosmic intensity.
Matt calls Cosmic Crusher our effort, to “Give credit to beers made on the front range of Colorado: strong Imperial IPAs.” And if you didn’t notice already, it is strong. Nine-point-five ABV strong, if you need it spelt out.
But is it too strong? Well, just ask Matt: “I have no problem drinking a 9.5% beer at this time of the day.” — Matt Brynildson, as stated at 9:13 am on a weekday.
