Bongo Havoc: Hazy IPA
One cymbal crash away from losing its mind, this hazy IPA has a Zappa soul. Tropical flavor freak-out with more haze than a basement jam sesh. More hops than a caffeinated kangaroo that’s wearing a leopard robe while playing the kazoo backwards. It’s free jazz in a can—no rules, all flavor. Warning: may cause spontaneous air bongos.

🎵 Session Track:
"Let’s Make the Water Turn Black" – Frank Zappa / The Mothers of Invention (1968)
Offbeat, narrative, and percussive—this track is all oddball rhythm and psychedelic storytelling. A great entry point for the controlled chaos that is Bongo Havoc.
💿 Full Session:
"Bongo Fury" – Frank Zappa / The Mothers of Invention w/ Captain Beefheart (1975)
It’s chaotic, jazzy, weird, percussive, and brain-melting—just like the beer’s wild hazy energy.
