Long Time Listener IPA
If you love music and you live in Seattle, you’ve probably heard DJ Kevin Cole on KEXP. It’s hard to believe, but Kevin has been “bringing the world together through the power of music” for 50 years in the radio/music industry – 25 of those at KEXP, and 18 of which he was the Director of Programming. And on Saturday, July 27th, he’s throwing a “Remix” Party – it’s not a retirement party, ok? He’ll still have a weekly show! – in the courtyard, with lots of live music and a bevy of delicious beer – LIKE THIS ONE. In the spirit of Kevin Cole, this IPA was brewed with Simcoe hops, a variety that ushered in the modern craft era, and Cascade hops, the foundational variety that sparked the origin of independent craft beer. With notes of grapefruit, meyer lemon, and pine – it’s a perfect accompaniment to jumping up and down to Ramone’s records with the guy who FUCKING DJ’d PRINCE’S 30TH BIRTHDAY PARTY.
