Origins of Fu! returns, and with a new glass!

ORIGINS OF FU! - DDH West Coast Double IPA
A long time ago, in a garage far, far away, Kelsey was whipping up a b**r that you’ve come to know and love: Hop-Fu! Today, we’re proud to present Origins of Fu! – a West Coast Double IPA inspired by all the double IPAs that influenced Kelsey in his homebrewing journey, and triple dry-hopped with Hop-Fu!’s original squad: Amarillo, Citra DynaBoost, Citra, Citra Cryo, Columbus Cryo, and Simcoe. Notes of mixed berry, purple grape, tropical candy, citrus zest & a touch of dank resin jump from the glass before landing into a dry, bitter finish. Everyone loves an origin story, and we know you’ll love Origins of Fu! too.

New Origins of Fu! glasses are available for purchase at the North Park taproom Wednesday, 11/11! Go get yours while they’re still here!

San Diego B**r Week just keeps getting better & better...thanks to a little help from our friends Highland Park Brewery!

X-RAYING PILLOW - TDH Hazy DIPA
We hit up our LA-based friends at Highland Park to bring you X-Raying Pillow! A true mashup of a couple award-winning hazies, this forecast is loaded with notes of fresh berries, guava, vibrant orange, and peach for this triple dry-hopped Hazy Double IPA. The Mosaic, Citra, and Galaxy clouds are rolling on in, and we couldn’t be happier to see them.

SHARED DETOUR - West Coast Pilsner
Hop in, we’re going on a road trip! First destination? To pick up the crew at Highland Park, of course! Perhaps we can catch a few waves or take a quick hike along the way– but we can’t forget to make a dry-hop pit stop, because our trunk is absolutely stuffed with HBC-1134, NZ-109, Tangier, Mosaic, Nelson Sauvin, and Nelson Sauvin Cryo. Cruise through notes of lemon, grapefruit peel, sauv blanc, sweet tangerine, and a delicate touch of rose water before landing at destination West Coast Pils!

PIZZA PARTY WITH HIGHLAND PARK
Join us at the Pizza Shop for a Pizza Party & Tap Takeover with our HPB buddies on Saturday, 11/14! Several b**rs from Highland Park are going on tap, and we’re slinging a collaboration pizza, all starting at 2pm. Here are the details:

A new collab with Grand Fir Brewing has arrived, and we’re down to just 4 tickets left for next Thursday’s collab b**r dinner!

GRAND-FU! - DDH West Coast IPA
Come along with us as we learn a thing or two about hoppy bevs and culinary creations from Senseis Whitney and Doug of Grand Fir! Together, we wrote a recipe that’s “West Coast” through and through: hop-forward, dry, and just the right hit of bitterness. Columbus Cryo, Krush Cryo, Mosaic, Mosaic Cryo, Nectaron, and Simcoe karate chop the palate with notes pulled straight from the fruit bowl: fresh-picked strawberries, mango, and orange Starburst galore. Congrats, you’ve mastered Grand-Fu!

Now available online for taproom pre-order and CA shipping. Pickups will start tomorrow at all three taprooms.

Your first San Diego B**r Week releases are here, thanks to a little help from our friends at Cellarmaker Brewing & GREEN CHEEK B**R CO!!

BEYOND UNREASONABLE - QDH Hazy Quad IPA
MORE IS MORE!! We wrangled our buddies Connor of Cellarmaker and Evan of Green Cheek to help us kick off San Diego B**r Week the only way we know how…by dropping the juiciest, stickiest, tastiest 12% ABV beverage around! Against our better judgment, we now bring you Beyond Unreasonable, a quadruple dry-hopped Hazy Quadruple IPA. A massive amount of Simcoe Cryo, Krush Cryo, Simcoe, Citra, Galaxy, and Peacharine went into this b**r for notes of juicy mango, peach candy, passion fruit, and kiwi Hi-Chew. Bigger than big, larger than large, hoppier than hoppy…it’s Beyond Unreasonable indeed!

A RARE MOMENT OF RESTRAINT - West Coast Pilsner
Less is more. While it sure is fun to dry hop the heck outta a b**r, especially when writing a recipe with Cellarmaker & Green Cheek, we decided that perhaps balance is found in a really lovely, delicate little libation. Flavors and aromas of lime peel, dank mary jane, blueberry, and a touch of lemongrass shine thanks to Columbus Cryo, Krush Cryo, Mosaic, Mosaic Cryo, Peacharine, Tropical Fusion, Simcoe, and Simcoe Cryo. We may have shown a bit of restraint with this one, but don’t count on it happening again!

CELLARMAKER & GREEN CHEEK TAP TAKEOVER
We’re celebrating the start of San Diego B**r Week on Friday, 11/6 by bringing in a bunch of killer b**rs from Cellarmaker and Green Cheek! 4 b**rs from each brewery will be available on draft at the Bankers Hill taproom starting at 2pm.

Crisp, clear, and drinkable as can be…it must be NP Kolsch! A lovely combination of German malts lend pleasant bready tasting notes, subtle malt sweetness, and a delicate bitterness. Best served in a stange for an experience of the traditional sort, and if you’re feeling especially bold, a whole kranz-worth just might be required. Cheers!

NP Kolsch and all of this week’s releases are available for pickup at all three taprooms today!

10/27/2026

The GREEN CHEEK B**R CO Pallys™ dreamed up a killer super-collab, and we’re honored to be one of the TEN (you read that right) breweries that get to release their bone-chilling b**r, DDH West Coast IPA is Dead! Simcoe, Mosaic, Nelson, and Krush are the backbone of this special release, and lend aromas of overripe watermelon, passionfruit, and kiwi. On the first sip, this one packs a punch with watermelon candy, dried apricot, diesely devil’s lettuce, and a present bitterness. Dank, clean, and dry - sometimes dead is better.

West Coast IPA is Dead is sold out for b**r shipping, but still available for taproom pre-order! Pickups start tomorrow at all three taprooms.

Do you like scary b**rs? 👻

SCARY SCARIES - TDH Hazy DIPA
Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn and kettle bubble…Scary Scaries is soon-to-be lurking menacingly in your b**r fridge. Simcoe, Citra, Rakau SubZero Hop Kief, Nelson Sauvin, Citra, Manilita, and Waimea haunt the palate for notes of POG juice, sticky mango slices, and peach rings. Be afraid, be very afraid!

CARVING IS HARD - TDH Hazy IPA
We’re giving you the inside scoop on a fresh TDH Hazy IPA straight from the North Park patch. Brimming with Citra, Nugget, and Nelson Sauvin, Carving is Hard features big citrus, stone fruit and white grape notes, with a thick body and smooth mouthfeel that’s sure to bring on a toothy grin. Lay out that newspaper, sharpen your knives & crack a cold one, because that jack-o-lantern isn’t going to carve itself!

All of this week’s releases are now available online for pre-order & CA b**r shipping! Pickups will start on Wednesday at all three taprooms.

Ales & La**rs, Friends & Neighbors: those are the pillars of what North Park B**r Co has been built on! To celebrate our Bankers Hill location and pay homage to the sign that shines within it, we bring you Friends & Neighbors Vienna-Style L***r. A blend of Vienna malts results in notes of toasted bread, while the Saaz hops offer a delicate dash of orange blossom and slight spice. This b**r is a delightful sipper for all occasions, but we think it’s best enjoyed in the company of your friends & neighbors.

Our tap list is about to get a whole lot spookier...🧛

HORRIFIC HORRORS - TDH Hazy DIPA
Do you dare crack a can and see what terrifying tincture lies within? We spiked Horrific Horrors with a concoction of Citra, Galaxy, and Nelson Sauvin for aromas of oozy POG juice and fresh lime peel. Throw caution to the wind and dive into this triple dry-hopped Hazy Double IPA for notes of overripe pineapple, guava jam, and a squeeze of lime wedge. Pairs well with scary movie marathons and handing out full-size candy bars at home…maybe it’s not so scary after all!

GRAVEYARD QUINTET - DDH West Coast Pale Ale
Gather ‘round, and hear the eerie melody of our ghoulish mausoleum-shop quintet. Our nearly departed sing a song of Amarillo, Citra, Krush, Mosaic, and Simcoe filled with aromas of zippy cherry limeade, mango, and dank fruit. As for the tasting notes: a splash of stonefruit, oozy lime, orange zest, and a lethal hit of dankness. Don’t tap those feet too hard to the beat, you’ll awaken this graveyard’s residents!

All of this week’s releases are now available online for pre-order & CA b**r shipping! Pickups will start on Wednesday at all three taprooms.
