I’m not sure what Murko Polo means, but I hope it’s just like the swimming pool game Marco Polo — except the pool is full of this Hazy IPA!

Sure, it would be a little sticky. But, if it means I get to pull on my water wings and paddle through a boozy pool of this thick-bodied juicebomb, that’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make!

But there WILL be issues.

For instance, my buddy Carl will immediately cannonball into the center of my beer pool and start drinking. He simply won’t be able to resist the siren song of all the Ekuanot, Citra, and Mosaic Hops. We’ll have to fish him out, sputtering and giggling, in the first 15 minutes.

And, once my neighbors get a whiff of the tangerine, mango, and grapefruit aromas swirling from the pool of Austin Brothers beer in my backyard, they’re going to show up with buckets! If this stuff can inspire fans to drive all the way up to tiny Alpena, Michigan, it’ll certainly draw crowds to my block.

Worst of all, I’d end up wasting a lot of beer. What a horrifying thought!

It’s probably best if I leave it in the cans — we don’t have nearly enough of this small batch release to fill a pool anyway. But trust me, this juice is so flavorful, that first sip will feel just like a plunge into your very own beer pool. When I say ‘Murko’ you say ‘Polo!’

According to Better On Draft, Austin Brothers had the Best Hazy IPA at the 2019 Detroit Beer Festival!
