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.

0,33 boks fra de velassorterte kjøleskapene hos El Rincon del Cervecera, på balconasen før middagen: uklar lys gylden med fint skum som varer. Friske fraspark fra første øyeblikk, dette inspirerer virkelig til en ny guttetur helt alene, og bussen går jo hver time og koster bare fem euro.

Bottle at home. Aroma is intense fruity hops, citrus, orange, juicy tropical fruits, grapefruit, pine resin, light biscuity malt. Flavour is light sweet and nicely bitter. Body is medium. Wow, very juicy and balanced with rich citrus and tropical hoppiness. Great IPA.
