Technical Description : An emerging style in the Pacific Northwest. CDA’s are a blend of IPA
and Dark Porters or Stouts. With a citrus and pine nose, yet a jet black color and a balanced
amount of roast and chocolate flavors, this new style strikes the perfect balance between hops
and malt. Crafted with Cascade hops and a special dark roasted malt from Germany, we feel
O’Dark:30 is a leader in Northwest CDA’s.
Commercial Description : Dawn has not arrived, but we are awake – cooling one small batch of
delicious beer, or starting the next. O’Dark:30 is a beguiling combination of dark malt and NW
hops, a tribute to the brewers of our region.
