More from a press release:

“Zupan’s Markets is excited to continue to explore the hottest beer styles with our exclusive Farm to Market line,’ said Zupan’s Markets’ President and CEO Mike Zupan. “The popularity of the Hazy IPA has exploded in the last year and together with HUB we have created the perfect one for the holiday season.”

This Hazy Style IPA is exclusively on shelves at all three Zupan’s Markets locations in 16oz can/4packs for $12.99. With only 140 cases produced, it will be available only for a limited time.

Christian Ettinger, Hopworks owner & brewer and the Hopworks team will sample the new Farm-to-Market beer alongside other HUB favorites at each Zupan’s Markets location on Friday, November 16 from 4-7 p.m.

“The Farm To Market series at Zupan’s Markets does a fantastic job of celebrating the relationship between farmers and delicious beer,” said HUB Brewmaster and Founder, Christian Ettinger. “Since day one we have enjoyed getting to know our local grocers and farmers in the Willamette Valley so this partnership with Zupan’s makes a lot of sense. The Strata hops are grown at Goschie Farms, one hour outside of Portland, and have an incredible dank flavor profile and tropical hop bouquet. We hope you love this innovative hazy IPA as much as we do!”

Tasting Notes: Hazy IPA with loads of oats and wheat for a velvety smooth and thick texture. Resinous and fruity tasting Strata hops from Goschie Farms give this beer a juice-like character and citrus bouquet.
