Turn Intention Into Action

Manifesto Notes | January 14, 2026

This Manifesto Hour took a refreshing turn, focusing on hop-forward flavor beyond beer.

With Hike Hopped Seltzer, we explored how hops introduce bitterness, aroma, and structure to N/A cocktails in unexpected ways. The discussion centered on balance — how hops interact with citrus, how carbonation shifts perception, and why restraint often creates the cleanest finish.

Rather than mimicking beer or spirits, the experience leaned into what hopped seltzers do best: clarity, versatility, and lift.

Manifesto Hour is about expanding perspective one glass at a time. Join us Wednesdays from 6–7PM to see what’s next.
