Mother Earth's Project X Series Launches Head Case Hazy IPA for Spring

Mother Earth welcomes Spring with the launch of their latest addition to the highly-acclaimed Project X Series - Head Case Hazy IPA. This Citra, Galaxy, and Mosaic-hopped brew boasts a familiar malt base, staying true to the West Coast-inspired hazies that the program is renowned for. Clocking in at 45 IBUs and 7.2% ABV, Head Case strikes a perfect balance with a restrained bitterness that has become the hallmark of Project X's recent releases.

“Combining modern hopping techniques along with the right yeast strain is critical to achieving the right balance of juicy-meets-clean," says Chris Baker, Director of Brewing Operations at Mother Earth. "Head Case is the first beer we’ve brewed to feature our new crop year of Citra and Galaxy, which are showing really strong aromatics, especially in the tropical and stone fruit categories. In order to take advantage of this, we use hops in almost every part of the hot and cold side, including whirlpool, intra-fermentation, and dry-hop additions. Then, of course, our house ‘Juice’ yeast strain is used to give the beer a nice full body while not being overly sweet like some can be. "

Head Case is aptly named after its manic cover art that showcases the psychedelic stylings of Los Angeles-based artist, Michael Gustus. Fans of Mother Earth and Michael Gustus are encouraged to visit the brewery's website for more information on the beer and the artist.

Craft beer enthusiasts can get their hands on the Head Case Hazy IPA in 16oz cans and on draft at independent craft beer retailers and Mother Earth's Idaho tasting rooms. Customers can easily locate the beer using the brewery's beer finder on findmotherearthbrewing.com.

With the release of the Head Case Hazy IPA, Mother Earth continues to impress and deliver on their promise of exceptional craft beer. Be sure to grab a can or pint of this limited edition brew before it's all gone.
