Three C's

Inspired by Green Flash's Session IPA and Miller 64, this is a low alcohol/calorie beer with a noticeable hop character. Something that can be enjoyed over the course of a day without leaving you face down in the gutter, or looking like you eat a box of donuts for breakfast every morning. Also makes an excellent post-workout recovery beverage.
