What is space dust? If Neil DeGrasse Tyson told me it was what comes out of black hole's butt hole I'd absolutely believe him. What's in a name? Did they actually put moon dust in this beer? Did they follow the guys who hunt meteors on the History Channel and purchase one of their hauls and then place it in the boil kettle? I don't know. Space is too weird, there's all sorts of weird shit out there. Ever heard of the extreme deep field? In 1996 scientists noticed a blank space near the moon that seemed to contain no traces of planetary or star light. Over ten years they compiled the images, overlayed them, and zoomed ever closer in the space. After ten years they compiled this:
This is the shit. That square up there is the most distant galaxy we've ever viewed. Within that box? Other galaxies with billions of planets, billions of stars, billions of possibilities. Space dust? What the fuck even is that? Gaseous swirls of galactic densities orbiting other terrestrial bogs in an ever expanding oval of curiosity? Shit. Shit. You aimed a telescope at a spot you didn't think contained anything and it contained everything. Space Dust, well, it could just be a clever way to get me to buy a double IPA. Which worked. Fuck. I'd like to believe Buzz Aldrin was tied to an elliptical and the brewers at Elysian collected his sweat as a yeast energizer. That's why the taste is so great. It's probs not true though. Whatever.

Nose: Dry hopped with Citra and Amarillo. You get some great citrus and grapefruit smells. It pulls through and finishes with a nice herbal smell.
Body: Light for an IPA with this much booze. Dry as well. Keeps the bitterness lingering.
Mouth: Gots the good stuff. Bitterness balanced with an earthy flavoring hop, rounded out with that smell. Party on.
