Introducing El Rojo Lúpulo! Continuing our slight obsession with classic west coasts, we took it a bit further and made this beautiful hoppy red ipa. One of our favorite beers every year is sierranevada Celebration, and this is a hommage to that beer. It’s hard to touch perfection, but we can only try. This beer is hyper crispy, made with a blend of 2 row and some light crystal malts, it’s then hit with lots of Simcoe and centennial in the boil, as well as a big dry hop of centennial and Simcoe cryo. The malts lend a wonderful nose of toast, slight brown sugar, a little dried fruit, with a huge aroma of those classic west coast hops layered on top—citrus and resin abound. The crispy vibes and bitterness is real here folks, and we love it!

On tap at Aurora Brewing in Bushnell’s Basin, NY.
This one pours a golden reddish brown color, with a small head, and lots of lacing.
This smells toasty, but with a piney and charred bitterness, grapefruit, marijuana, and orange.
This feels a bit like a spiked up Nugget Nectar – deliciously toasty, bready, and almost burnt tasting, in a good way. There’s a nice earthy bitterness, very green and foresty, with grapefruit pith and orange peel as well.
This is medium bodied, creamy, and very drinkable.
This was extremely enjoyable.
