NOLA BREWING RED MECHA VEGETARIAN HOPZILLA MONSTER Draft beer tap handle. The first craft brewery to open in New Orleans after Dixie Brewing was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. This beer was first featured in 2012 with 2 versions. Mecha and MechaHopzilla Imperial IPA. Bravo, Columbus, Centennial and Citra hops are slam packed into this hoppy brew. Dry-hopped at 4 pounds per barrel! Pungent hop aroma with bold, juicy hop flavors. Limited brew that was only available on draft. It cost too much too brew that it became a seasonal and this tap was not even allowed to pour the beer by 2014. This piece and his menacing green brother were discontinued due to infringement rights. Looks familiar, buts that’s not Japan and this guy’s a vegetarian. Tap is new in original box. Please view all photos as they are the best part of the description. Red version Mecha Hopzilla. A real hop hungry monster. Destroying part of the city with his destructive thirst for lupulins and essential oils from the sticky hop cones. He is seen here munching on the juiciest hop in the French Quarter. The juice drops in huge puddles covering the tops of the Superdome and other buildings. Hard to find these days. Bright green ionized metallic ferrule. Stands 12 inches tall. Tap has been turned and rotated so that all sides are pictured. This is the actual item you will receive. What a great time to be a tap collector. New Craft Breweries are opening every day in our great country by entrepreneurs trying to make their mark in the industry. Some of the handles that are created to advertise these new brews are really cool and collectible. If the item has noticeable flaws, it will be mentioned in description. I usually respond quite fast.
