Notes

This beer has been a huge hit with friends. The Devils Club and Spruce tip blend perfectly with the hops for an herby and earthy IPA. Very unique. Devils Club is a very therapeutic substance of the Ginko family. It has been used traditionally as a cure-all for thousands of years. It is also known to produce hallucinations when consumed in very high concentrations. I find the devil's club produces a particularly giggly and giddy kind of intoxication, similar to red wine or tequila. Note that Devils club berries are poisonous. Only the bark/roots are safe for consumption. Like any plant/herb, some people are known to have allergic reactions to Devil's Club, so it is advised to be cautious if you've never had it before.
