The Lagunitas Brewing Company teamed up with the vape cartridge manufacturer CannaCraft to create a distinctly flavored and formulated marijuana-infused beer.
The beer, called 'SuperCritical,' contains cannabis terpenes – "aromatic compounds of fragant oils from the marijuana plant." The cannabis terpenes are included for their flavor, as the beer itself contains no THC and individuals who have tried it have not experienced any of the psychotropic effects that cannabis consumption is known for. The Lagunitas Brewing Company also teamed up with the vaping brand AbsoluteXtracts in order to produce a cannabis oil "containing hop terpenes," which actually will have THC in it.
This craft brewery's latest venture in the cannabis industry speaks to the growing prevalence of marijuana in a variety of different fields.
