Any Lower Alabamian can tell you that if you're trying to cross Mobile Bay in the summer, leave the Bayway to the tourists and take the Causeway instead, and it all starts with the Bankhead Tunnel at the foot of Government Street.
And so it went with our first installment of the Fairhop IPA series, The Bankhead Tunnel. A beer that was so delicious we brewed a full 10-barrel batch just a week after unleashing 10 gallons of it upon the thirsty, hop-loving denizens of our taproom.
We're naming the big batch (Take the) Causeway IPA, and, just like that journey east across the Bay, it all starts with the Bankhead Tunnel.
