"I like to say that if you looked at beer like a band, the drummer would be the water, and the bass would be the malt, and the hops would be the guitar player—because it goes to 11—and then the yeast is like the lead singer. It doesn’t always show up. It’s the wild card." -Kyle

HOPPOPOTAMUS
“Cast” Conditioned
Belgian-Style Hoppy Blonde Ale
Hoppopotamus is a collaboration with Kyle Hollingsworth of The String Cheese Incident and of Kyle Hollingsworth Band. The combination of mandarin orange puree and Citra, Mandarina Bavaria, and Lemondrop hops makes for a hop forward easy-
drinker. We call this beer “cast” conditioned to pay homage to Kyle’s broken arm which did not happen while he was brewing this beer. Super fruity aroma with notes of citrus and stone fruit.
I'm super stoked for my new Craft Beer Corner at Suwannee Hulaween! From special tastings to unique performances, it's going to be a blast. This is something I've been wanting to do for a long time. I'm really excited to bring it to life with all of you at Hulaween! Get ready for some tricks and treats! Hoppy Hulaween!!! -Kyle
Kyle's Craft Beer Corner will be located in a tent near The Patch stage.

The Brewing Network chose Kyle as their Celebrity Collaborator in their most recent podcast!
Listen to the podcast HERE
Kyle discusses the history behind his love affair with beer and the surprising compatibility between brewing and making music.
Check out the article HERE
"I looked in the audience and saw all these people drinking mediocre beers in the blazing sun and I was like, ‘I’ve got to do something about this.’ I knew I needed to make a beer that people can drink in the sun when it’s blazing hot that has more character, more flavor and just better taste.”
Posted on June 8, 2015
Kyle recently sat down with Oregon Beer Growler magazine for a profile on his life and career for their issue, "Oregon Beer Rocks: The Music Issue".

"There’s an element of risk involved as there is with any impromptu performance. A note could fall flat. Things could get out of sync. But not knowing whether something could go wrong makes it all the more thrilling, and a successful execution results in a more rewarding experience."
Kyle was recently featured as Craft Beer & Brewing's Breakout Brewer Profile!

“It’s all about balance, while allowing the freedom to be creative and not hesitating to take a risk. You have to leave the door open for the magic to come in.” -KH
What a great weekend, from Red Rocks to Great American Beer Festival, it was a blast!
I was able to do a short seminar on creativity in brewing and music. Sam Calgione of Dogfish Head Beer and Isaac Hanson of Hanson joined the panel. Plus we got to do a jam afterwards. Sweet! Music and Craft beer - two things that go great together.
On Saturday, October 4th, Kyle will be taking part in a special presentation at The Great American Beer Festival, in Denver, CO, covering the intersection of music and beer. Accompanied by the Brewer's Association's Bradley Latham and Dogfish Head Craft Brewery's Sam Calgione, Kyle will discuss his experiences with combining the realms of craft brewing and musical expression.

Look who made it into Beer Connoisseur! 95...That's good right?
So much going on in my brew lifestyle.
Getting excited for my 5th annual beer festival here in Boulder Colorado.
This time around I’ve added new breweries and collaborated with some more. Epic Joined the roster of Kyle collaborators. We did a cast conditioned IPA with Spruce tips from the courthouse in Salt Lake City, plus lots of interesting dry hop additions.
And back for the second year, is Fate Brewing. With this gluten reduced, earl gray infused, hopped up wheat. We balanced the malt and hoppiness with the Bergamot flavors and created a truly unique beer. And back for the third season is Winter’s Day IPA that made I with Avery, their traditional IPA infused with Rosemary. YUM!
Of course, we have three beers that relate to my new CD release: The “Hop Tracks” beers. Stone’s Collective Distortion is a double IPA that I made with Alice Cooper’s guitar player. This beer goes to 11 (well actually 9.3). Hoopla from Boulder Beer is a hopped up pale that is perfect for a festival or camping experience. Then finally, “Happening Now IPA”, a session beer from cigar city.
This year has been very good to me as it relates to music and brewing. I’m a very lucky man to be able to connect my two passions so intrinsically. I love connections between brewing and music creation. There’s such a joy in the risk and rewards that come from these two art forms.
