About This Beer

King of the Thing is Drekker’s liquid ode to Citra Hops and all their juicy magnificence and splendor. They brewed it with a “mountain of oats and spelt” for a mouthfeel that’s softer and more luxuriant than King Louis’ mink mantle.

Tasting Notes

This liquid magnificence shines with notes of lychee, candied lemon, and peach bellini while aromas of freshly-peeled oranges and ripe pineapple rise from the golden pour.

Hazy Juicy Pillowy

Out of the 4 I ordered, 3 of them were flat. It looked like the seal on the top of the can didn’t fully seal. It was leaking out of the top. The one that wasn’t flat however was really tasty. Would really like to try these again but 3 out of four isn’t good enough odds for me to order more...

One of my two cans was compromised and lost pressure. The "good one" was disappointing.

Very Fragrant nose. Medium body. Has some residual bitterness and hop bite. It not the best I've had from Drekker, but I enjoyed it.

Medium body, it has a bit of a bitter after taste. Not overly citrusy OR piney, so not sure how to classify. It was just ok.
