Highland IPA debuts year-round in January

Highland IPA

Highland IPA is a new year-round, west-coast style, India pale ale, coming in 2016.

The Highland IPA recipe is created by head brewer Hollie Stephenson, and features Chinook, Citra, and Centennial hops.

A sturdy malt bill frames hints of tropical fruit, lemon rind, grapefruit and dank hop notes. Brilliant and golden in color, the beer finishes resiny, citrusy and dry.

Stephenson touts this beer to be one of the most unique in the southeast, among some pretty stiff/hoppy competition (Wicked Weed Pernicious, SweetWater IPA, NoDa Hop Drop n’ Roll, Creature Comforts Tropicalia to name a few). This new IPA is how Highland and Stephenson defined the west coast style.

Highland IPA debuts in January, 2016, on draft and 12 ounce bottles year-round.

Style: IPA
Hops: Chinook, Centennial, Citra

Availability: 12oz Bottles, Draft.
Release: January, 2016

7% ABV

Highland Lost Cove American Pale Ale Arrives Mid-May

Highland Lost Cove American Pale Ale

For the first time since 2013, Asheville, North Carolina’s Highland Brewing is releasing a new seasonal. Highland Lost Cove American Pale Ale arrives in May.

Named for a ghost town on the Nolichucky River (on the NC/TN border), Highland Lost Cove got its start on the 3-barrel pilot system a while back. The brewery uses Cascade and Hallertau hops, along with pilsner malt to create a sessionable, warm weather offering.

“Lost Cove is a thirst quenching, fun, light, sessionable beer with grassy German hops and citrusy American hops. This beer is interesting, its backbone is pilsner malt from the American Midwest, and we fermented it with our house ale yeast, creating a unique spin on an American pale. I’m looking forward to drinking one in the Meadow!”

Highland Lost Cove releases in mid-May in 12oz bottles and draft in all of Highland’s markets.

Style: Pale Ale
Hops: Cascade, Hallertau
Malts: Grains: Pilsen, Carapils, and Vienna

Availability: 12oz Bottles, Draft. Seasonal Release
Launch: Mid-May, 2015

4.5% ABV, 20 IBUs
