Monkey Paw’s Bonobos

Created by Monkey Paw Brewery in San Diego, this citrusy brew is loaded with equal parts hop flavor and carbonation. In case you were curious, the Bonobo species is one of the two species of apes most closely related to humans (the other is the chimpanzee, in case you were wondering). Cheers to our fellow primates!
