Toppling Goliath in Phoenix: Pseudo Sue Pale Ale Roars into Goodz and Brews

Big flavor. Bold design. Legendary taste. Pseudo Sue Pale Ale by Toppling Goliath Brewing Co. has officially landed at Goodz and Brews, and Phoenix craft beer lovers are taking notice.

This fan-favorite brew is known nationwide for its citrus-forward flavor, smooth drinkability, and unforgettable label featuring a roaring T. rex — and now, you can grab a cold 4-pack right here in Central Phoenix.

🍻 What Is Pseudo Sue Pale Ale?

Originally brewed in collaboration with Chicago’s Field Museum, Pseudo Sue is a single-hop pale ale clocking in at 5.8% ABV. It’s brewed with nothing but Citra hops — and the result is a deliciously balanced blend of grapefruit, mango, and subtle pine. Expect a slightly hazy pour, light bitterness, and a crisp finish that makes it endlessly sippable.

  • Style: Pale Ale
  • ABV: 5.8%
  • Hops: Citra
  • Origin: Decorah, Iowa

🦖 The Story Behind the T. Rex

What makes Pseudo Sue so iconic isn’t just the flavor — it’s the story. The beer was inspired by the most complete Tyrannosaurus rex fossil ever discovered, affectionately known as “Sue.” Housed at the Field Museum, Sue has become a symbol of scientific discovery and untamed strength — much like this beer.

The label artwork, which features a stylized purple and green T. rex, has become one of the most recognized can designs in the U.S. craft beer world.
