Tumblefield has crash landed in Downtown Norcross!
Tumblefield is a refreshing hop driven Southeast IPA showcasing fresh, juicy, fruity hop flavors. Deceptively soft, creamy mouth feel with a crisp finish. Brewed and double dry hopped with Galaxy, Centennial, Azaca and Citra. The name and beer pays homage to the mural on our building. The mural, titled “Tumblefield,” is the cornerstone to the Alley. The mural narrative entails that Norcross is known for its red foxes, which can be known to be playful and mischievous. The design combines the whimsical feel of play against a backdrop of abstractedelements that have intentionality from the artist but are open to interpretation by the viewer. Other design subtleties include birds that represent positive omens of change and homage to Norcross parks; circular elements that represent community; and linear elements representing train tracks.
