Description
At Luppolo our beer is equally as important as the atmosphere we create in our lounge. Enjoy our selection of craft beers and delicious food in a warm and welcoming environment, your home away from home located in the “Yeast Van” Brewery District in Vancouver, BC.

Luppolo (pronounced loop-o-lo) means hops in Italian. We chose an Italian name due to the Italian heritage of two of our owners and because the values associated with Italian culture–quality, craftsmanship, community and family–are central to our vision.

473ml can. Pours a hazy orange gold with a medium, foamy, long lasting, white head that leaves soapy curtains of lace. Sweet fruity aroma of pale malt, mandarin orange, strawberry and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of biscuity pale malt, tangerine, mango and piney hops in a crisp, dry, bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. Clean, refreshing and crushable.

473ml can. Pours a slightly hazy gold with a medium, foamy, long lasting, white head that leaves thick curtains of soapy lace. Aroma of crackery pale malt and herbal hops. Sweet flavour of bready pale malt, grass and spicy hops in a crisp, dry, bitter finish. Light body with an oily to watery texture and average carbonation. Really hoppy and bitter. Pretty solid.

Tasting at Ryan's, can
Cloudy pink/brownish colour. Some acidity in the aroma, grape skins, soil. Moderately acidic; mild grape flavour, while the beer characteristics are lacking.
Pleasant.

Poured from 355mL can. Hazy pale pastel orange with minimal white head. Juicy grape pomace, simple, but effective, mild bugs and tartness, decent.

On tap at Luppolo, pours black with a tiny brown head. Aroma is full of rich toasted hazelnuts, a little almonds, some pistachio, and gentle whiskey barrel presence. Flavour is very nutty, with tons of roasted hazelnuts and almonds, moderate roasted malt, and gentle whiskey barrel to round it out. Wonderful incorporation of the nuts. This is masterful.

On tap at Luppolo, pours black with a small brown bead. Aroma has rich medium roast espresso beans, light vanilla, and a touch of cocoa, with soft whiskey barrels in back. Flavour is rich, with lots of deep roasted coffee, gentle vanilla, and subtle whiskey barrels still detectable back here. Complex and balanced, yet quite full-on with the adjuncts. Excellent.

On tap at Luppolo, pours a deep dark brown with a medium tan head. Aroma brings out toasted malt, a touch of cocoa, and a touch of seaweed. Flavour has nice toasted malt, cocoa, and some earthiness. Not getting the kelp here, but pleasant malt character. Good.
