Secret Swami’s – Pizza Port Brewing Co.

A Hidden-Twist Take on a Coastal Classic

Pizza Port’s iconic Swami’s IPA has long been a pillar of San Diego hop culture. With Secret Swami’s, the brewers take that beloved West Coast profile and unlock a deeper, more enigmatic hop expression. It’s familiar, yet elevated — a covert operation in pure, coastal hop bliss.

Key Features

• West Coast–style IPA with a modern hop bill

• Crisp, bright, and resin-forward with layered citrus and tropical complexity

• Brewed with the classic Pizza Port touch: clean fermentation, lean malt, big hops

• Limited/rotational release — a fun twist for fans of the original Swami’s

• Built for hopheads who want something both nostalgic and new

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Juicy citrus peel, fresh-cut pine, tropical fruit, and dank hop resin.
Palate: Snappy bitterness upfront with notes of grapefruit, passion fruit, lemon zest, and pine needles. Hints of berry and stone fruit peek through, giving the “secret” layer its name.
Finish: Clean, dry, and refreshingly bitter — classic West Coast with a modern aromatic lift.

Awards (Past Brewery Highlights)

While Secret Swami’s is a specialty variant, Pizza Port’s IPA pedigree includes:

• Multiple Great American Beer Festival medals

Overall Expression

Secret Swami’s is the mystical evolution of a San Diego legend — crisp, aromatic, hop-saturated, and deeply satisfying. It keeps everything fans adore about Swami’s IPA while revealing a fresh, intriguing hop layer that feels like insider knowledge for true IPA devotees.

Whether enjoyed beachside, alongside a slice, or straight from a fresh 16oz can, this is Pizza Port doing what they do best: uncompromising West Coast hops with character and soul.
