Drink Alpine Beer or Go To Bed
Posted by The Hop Hunter
If you happen to live in or around the greater San Diego area and are a fan of hops then you’ll want to pay close attention to the date of July 3rd 2009. That is reportedly the day when Alpine Beer Company, located at  2351 Alpine Blvd, Alpine CA 91901, will release no less than three of their most outstanding brews…..including
Duet – Alpine’s great West Coast style IPAÂ Â brewed with Simco and Amarillo Hops. 7% abv. True to it’s name …a beer in great harmony.
Nelson – a brilliant Golden Rye IPA that utilizes copious amounts of New Zealand Nelson Sauvin hops. 7% abv. So delicate, yet with a hop aroma that will leave you checking the area for stray Tom Cats
Exponential Hoppiness – This West Coast Triple IPA is one of the all time grand daddies of Imperial IPA’s. The hops are introduced at double the quantities of the previous addition, followed by a hopback session and double dry hopping. 10.75% abv. This beer is always right near the top of the Hop Hunters wish list.
There are no limits on growler fills this time due to the fact that each of these three gems were produced  in double batches. It is estimated that supplies may last up to a week and a half at the brewery.
Yes…these beers are that good. Mark your calendar, or schedule a vacation. I already have dibs on the Pacific Brew News Corporate Jet for that weekend. See you there. I will be the big bearded idiot there trying to fill 22 growlers with food stamps and frequent flyer miles.







Mike, wow! Thanks for this update… I can’t tell you how thirsty I am now.
