San Diego-based Duckfoot Brewery Co teamed up with the Zappa Trust to create a new tribute beer, hilariously named Why Does It Hurt When IPA?
The name, of course, is a play on the late Frank Zappa’s 1979
Joe’s Garage track, “Why Does It Hurt When I Pee?” The beer is launched on Monday (Dec. 21) in honor of the star’s birthday.
The West Coast-style IPA, brewed with Zappa hops, Simcoe and Cascade, has notes of passion fruit, spice and the rocker’s favorite, grapefruit. The can itself features never-before-published photos of Frank.
The ZAPPA TRUST and San Diego-based
Duckfoot Brewery Co have teamed up to launch a new
FRANK ZAPPA tribute beer, Why Does It Hurt When IPA? It’s set to debut on ZAPPA’s birthday, December 21.
It’s a wild, improvisational jam of an IPA, brewed with ZAPPA hops, Simcoe and Cascade. The West Coast-style IPA has notes of passion fruit, spice and grapefruit (a favorite of FRANK ZAPPA’s) with a clean and dry finish. The can features never-before-published photos of Frank which pair nicely with the beer itself. In addition, the label explains more, “the Zappa hop, like the man, has a hugely eclectic style. Published flavor notes have ranged from passion fruit, mint, spicy, savory, fruity cereal, and uh.purple. (Try the beer, you’ll get it). Just like Frank, this hop is one of a kind and awesome.”
