We speakeasy

Full Disclosure: We are based in San Francisco and so is Big Daddy but we will attempt to remain unbiased and not just automatically root for our home team IPA.

Some names exude awesomeness- Big Daddy is one such example, and as such finds a spot in our yet to be completed top 50 IPA names list. The whole package lends to some sort of sneaky secret Mafioso underworld where even the beer you are drinking is watching you or watching out for you. We are not sure how much IPAs infiltrated the speakeasies of old but the Big Daddy reminds us how lame prohibition was and we are sure glad that failed experiment is over. It is so far in the past that our own President is known to enjoy a cold brew every now and again- and guess what, rumor has it that it is brewed in the White House. We sure hope it is an IPA.

One great way to spread the word both statewide and worldwide is to get your IPA into an international airport, which Speakeasy did with the Big Daddy at SFO (San Francisco International) where it enjoys a large number of beer 'check ins' across social media sites and apps. Let us know if you find one available in the plane!
