Go ahead - Borrow a Feeling!
A little tropical therapy, coming right up! “Can I Borrow A Feeling?” is a juicy, hazy Strong Pale Ale that brings the good vibes in a big way. Think ripe pineapple, sweet mango, candied apricot, and juicy orange, all wrapped up in an exceptionally soft, pillowy body that’ll have you going back for another sip (and probably another).
A generous helping of oats gives this beer its lush, velvety feel, while a hop lineup of Pink, Idaho 7, Citra, and Citra Cryo delivers layers of tropical fruit, big hop character, and a little green, dank goodness on the finish. There’s just enough bitterness to keep all that juicy fruit in check, with a whisper of vanilla rounding things out.
The result? A seriously soft-drinking, fruit-forward beer with plenty of hop personality. At 5.6% ABV, it’s a whole lot of feel-good in one glass.
A little more about the name…
If you’re wondering where the name came from, you can thank Brewer Adam and his devotion to The Simpsons. The rest of us just went along with it. We’re still not sure how many people will get the reference, but bonus points if you do without Googling it. Even more points if you can sing it. 🙂
The tasting notes:
- Appearance: Dark pineapple gold with a hazy, pale glow and a thick, bright-white head.
- Aroma: Big, lush hop dankness with waves of tropical fruit coming through.
- Taste: Soft, juicy, and bursting with tropical fruit up front, followed by a punch of green, resinous hop character on the finish. For IPA fans who like their hops bold but their beers easy-drinking.
- Mouthfeel: Super soft, smooth, and pillowy. Thank you Oats for doing the job!
This beer will drop the first week in November – in both cans and on draft!

We went heavy on the oats for a super soft mouth feel. Oat (one of our brew pups) seems pretty pleased about it!
