To a Tea
Happy hour and teatime collide



Stone Brewing has brought new meaning to teatime.

Typically, green tea and craft brews are suited to entirely different occasions. But for its newest release, the inventive Southern California brewery has brought the fragrant, calming pleasures of a hot cup to a cold bottle.

To create the Japanese Green Tea IPA ($3.50 for 12 ounces), the proceeds of which are earmarked for the Japanese Red Cross Society for earthquake and tsunami relief, Stone collaborated with Guam's Ishii Brewing and Japan's Baird Brewing. The IPA detours from the overly citric characteristics commonplace in hoppy American ales, a result of the international partnership.

The brewers relied on offbeat hops such as New Zealand's orange-marmalade-scented Pacifica, Japan's lemony Sorachi Ace and France's recently released Aramis, which has an herbal, lemon-hinted bouquet. But the Japanese Green Tea IPA truly stands apart thanks to the addition of whole-leaf sencha tea from Japan. Cold-steeped in the brew, the tea imparts a delicate, grassy flavor that melds well with the IPA's herbal bitterness.

And though the limited release weighs in at a robust 9.2 percent alcohol, it drinks as easily as a spot of tea.

My Big Boy mug makes it into many of my pictures here, but I thought I'd throw a piece of Lexan on the mill to make a coaster for it.

La Fin Du Monde and Maudite are about the only beers that will keep me from buying nothing but IPAs and Natty Ice.

The cashier dude asked me to stop short of the counter to take a picture of me carrying the La Fin Du Monde and a 30 pack of Natty Ice. And the Natty 30 is only 3 more bucks than the 4 pack. Hah.

I'll never drink beer from a clear or green bottle. #1 sign that the brewery knows nothing about packaging beer or doesn't care.
