Character:
A definitively East Coast-inspired full-bodied IPA made in collaboration with the masters of Australian Hazies.
Naming:
At the beginning of 2023, an Australian importer of Japanese beer and a Japanese importer of Australian beer decided to combine forces and kick off an event where Japanese breweries could brew with Australian breweries. The result of that saw us paired with Deeds Brewing, a brewery that was known for brewing a wide variety of styles, including Belgian beers. On our side of the collab, we put out a Belgian Tripel that featured ingredients akin to a Lamington, a dessert from Australia that features pineapple, coconut and almonds.
Fast forward to 2025 and the idea was to do another cross-ocean exchange and this time we were paired with Mountain Culture, a brewery known for their hazy IPAs. Unfortunately, for a variety of reasons the festival was shelved. Not one to back away from a chance to have some fun, Mountain Culture asked us if we'd still be game for a collaboration and we said we'd love to.
In March, prior to heading over to New Zealand for hop harvest, we visited the Mountain Culture guys at both their original brewery located about 90 minutes out of Sydney in the Blue Mountains and their new production brewery located in Emu Plains. On their end, they brewed a Belgian IPA and the beer was aptly named, "I Did My Duty" to express how we still wanted to brew despite the festival not happening.
Fast forward a few months and head brewer Jumbo came out and visited us. Off the back of that, we decided to brew hazy IPA on our end and took inspiration from their manga-like label artwork.
