Sierra Nevada - 2013 Beer Camp # 93 (IPA), #94 (Belgian Black IPA) & #95 (Imperial Red Ale)

Here’s your first look at three of the entries for the annual Sierra Nevada Beer Camp variety pack.  Today we have # 93 (IPA with Cascade & Citra Hops--6.9% ABV), #94 (Belgian Black IPA with Sorachi Ace & Nelson Sauvin Hops & Belgian yeast--7.7% ABV) & #95 (Imperial Red Ale with West Coast hops--9.5% ABV).  These are all 12oz bottles.

Bottle Text:

Sierra Nevada IPA: This IPA sacrifices nothing for its drinkability, flexing big time flavor and complexity. The light color disguises the depth of the malt backbone, a pillar that balances the potent whole-cones of the piney-citrus Cascade and tropical fruit-like Citra hops.



Sierra Nevada Belgian-style Black IPA: This beguiling black IPA takes a tropical detour with a dose of new world hops, featuring lemony Sorachi Ace and fruity Nelson Sauvin varieties. A Belgian yeast works with the exotic hop profile, emphasizing its complex and fruity flavors.


Sierra Nevada Imperial Red Ale 2013: Our aggressive Imperial Red Ale is a massive mix of smooth malts and West Coast hops that have no patience for the lupulin leery. This crimson beer starts with caramel-like malt flavor that can’t suppress the assertive, citrusy hop finale.
