The muse for Joyous is a fresh
and bright yeast strain called Hothead Kveik. We harmonize with its vibrant tropical profile through a combination of aromatic Citra, Sabro and Azacca hops. With soft notes of tangelo, juicy papaya and subtle coconut, this refreshing IPA tops our list of sure signs that another joyous spring has sprung.

Bright and juicy new Joyous IPA inspired by tropical flavors
You could say that Joyous was reverse-engineered. It’s an IPA inspired not by hops, but by a yeast strain: Hothead Kveik. We love Hothead’s vibrant tropical profile, and we used a combination of Citra, Sabro and Azacca hops to harmonize with it.
