SAN FRANCISCO, California – Releasing February 11th at Heretic Brewing, and on February 18th at Calicraft Brewing, Evil & Co. is a boundary pushing Triple IPA brewed to celebrate SF Beer Week!

“We couldn’t be more amped to collaborate with our friends at Heretic Brewing and Hopsteiner on Evil & Co. Triple IPA. We’ve always loved the great Bay Area Triple IPAs and are extremely excited to add one to the pantheon. Just like Calicraft, Evil & Co. is experimental, progressive, and like no other.”

“This year we introduce Evil & Co., the first of our planned annual collaboration between breweries and hop suppliers we feel share the philosophy of Heretic; Don’t drink ordinary beer. For our inaugural brew, we are partnering with Calicraft Brewing Company and Hopsteiner to bring you an 11.5% ABV Triple IPA featuring Hopflow, 17701 hops, Salvo, Lupulin Cascade, and Citra, resulting in notes of  peach, yuzu, melon, and apricot.”
