Description
Alpine Beer Company began with Patrick and Valerie McIlhenney in 1999. We are a small-town brewery, nestled in the foothills of the mountains just outside of San Diego. From IPAs to small-batch sours, we’ve been crafting high-quality ales since 1999. Known as the “Home of Pure Hoppiness,” people travel from near and far to try our special brews. Now you can bring home a little taste of hoppiness from Alpine.

In 2014 Alpine Beer Company and Green Flash officially joined forces, allowing for the expansion that Pat had been working on to become an immediate reality.

In December 2021, Alpine Beer Co. was acquried by Atlanta-based SweetWater Brewing Co.

Bottle. Clear translucent yellow gold color with a medium white head that recedes to a film. The aroma is robust with grapefruit, melons and lemon zest. This mirrors the aroma with bitter grapefruit and melons dominating. The palate is full and crisp with lively carbonation. overall: decent An old school type of IPA done well.

Can from De Bierenwinkel Ede. Straight from can during a holiday hike, at De Ginkelse Heide. Color: Hazy golden, white head I presume? Aroma: Hoppy, some tropical and citrus fruit. Taste: Hoppy, orange, orangepeel, grapefruit zest. Grassy hop. Spicy hints of the used rye malt. Starting moderate to over moderate bitter, finishing above moderate to medium bitterness. Light sweetness. Quite smooth and quite dense mouthfeel, over medium body average carbonation. Dry-ish finish. Very nice.

Thuis uit een blikje. Gouden kleur, licht troebel, wit schuim dat wat dun is. Aroma wat gist, hoppig. In de smaak een stevige bitterheid, wat citrus. Goede licht bittere nasmaak.
