Komodo Dragonfly is one of our most requested “throwback” beers. Formerly a regular winter seasonal, Komodo was retired a few years ago to make way for new beers that better fit the changing taste preferences of our drinkers. However, after years of IPAs trending sweeter, thicker, hazier, and more tropical, we’ve started to crave the taste of the somewhat forgotten style of Black IPA. The unique character of this beer is focused on hop flavors and aromas that lean toward resinous, piney, and dank rather than the pure tropical fruit focus of Juicy IPAs. Komodo’s black color immediately primes the taste buds for a different kind of IPA experience, but the black malts used to contribute color are carefully selected and utilized in a way that

From the glowing orange appearance to the soft creamy mouthfeel and delicate sweetness, this beer is
everything delicious about tropical fruit juice embodied in a dangerously drinkable IPA.

This collaboration began as a shared vision. A passion for Belgian Ales, love of the Midwest, and commitment to sustainability brought us together with our friends at Taxman Brewery to make Extension. To bring it to life, we brewed Taxman’s Tripel, a swaggery Belgian-style ale, with orange zest, coriander and lemon, in Upland’s Wood Shop Sour Brewery. After the primary fermentation in our foedre it aged it in our barrels for 6 months.
