The house yeast of Tin Roof Brewing in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, is the A38 "Juice" strain from Imperial Yeast of Portland, Oregon. This is an increasingly popular strain for brewing hazy IPAs, with an ester profile that accentuates the style's typical hop varieties.

This is a homebrew-scale version of Juke Joint, Tin Roof's flagship IPA, heavily dry-hopped with Mosaic, Amarillo, and Centennial for aromas of berry, citrus, and tropical-fruit, with earthy and melon background notes.
