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.

Hazy yellow with a huge foamy white head that lingered and left excellent lacing. Tart with citrus, cactus and a bit of earthiness. Long finish. Medium body.

Redelijk light qua smaak, maar de smaak die er is, is prima. Aardig bitter ook. Zon op de bek. Koude IPA. Lekker.

Large foamy white head left a froth on an unclear pale gold body. Malt, confectionery & floral aroma. Medium to full bodied, lively with a smooth back. Bubble gum, yeast, biscuit, sweet citrus & hopped up tastes. Really enjoyable beer - Straightforward.
