Exciting news from New Belgium & Alpine Brewing……Super IPA is being brewed Today. Details are here. ![[image%255B2%255D.png]](http://lh4.ggpht.com/-qa4aHRvJU2I/T89EAGJc65I/AAAAAAAAfoQ/UhAr-B3JDxY/s1600/image%25255B2%25255D.png)
Update from Alpine Beer Co:
Shawn and I flew to Colorado a couple weeks ago to brew a collaboration beer with the fine folks at New Belgium Brewing Company. We brewed a Double IPA almost equal in volume to our annual production. Seven brews of 200 barrels each were brewed starting at around 9 am and the last brew wrapped up around 6 am the next morning. It’s called “Super India Pale Ale” in the vein of super heroism. It will be 9% abv and we used an incredible 2 tons of four different hop varieties just in the dry-hopping. The current plan is to release it for the opening of the Great American Beer Festival through New Belgium’s national distribution system. We wanted to use “Lex Lupulin” for the name but, as it turns out, O’Dell’s Brewing also of Fort Collins has a beer called “St. Lupulin” and they had a problem with the use of the name.
