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.

Can day 17 Loz's Beer Republic Advent Calendar. Had this at home Tuesday 17th December 2024 listening to ByteFM and putting up the Christmas tree, we had Mushroom Stroganoff for tea. Pours a warm gold colour with a mid sized white head. Sweet and with a nice hoppiness, juicy and smooth in the mouth. I like this, didn't really have too much as this was Loz's beer but very decent effort.

Day 17 can from the Beer Republic Advent Calendar. Aroma is initially floral before citrus and vanilla sweetness appear. Although their is a slightly soapy element to it. Hazy pale light orange. Foamy translucent white head. Citrusy, fruity. Zest snd spice. Hoppy bitterness and onions follow up. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Relatively low key yet peppy NEIPA.
