New Belgium Accumulation White IPA returns

New Belgium Accumulation White IPA returns to the the Fort Collins, Colorado based brewery’s lineup.

Designed for a light bodied beer for colder weather is New Belgium Accumulation White IPA. White IPAs are brewed with a large amount of wheat malt. Wheat softens the mouthfeel, making the beer smoother, creamier.

ACCUMULATION White IPA was inspired by the white beauty that falls each winter from our Colorado sky. Flurries of Mosaic and Amarillo hops bring soft fruit and citrus flavor, followed by a layer of bitter. Piled high in IBUS, Accumulation will make your winter brighter.

New Belgium Accumulation White IPA is available in 12 ounce bottles and draft, seasonally.

Style: White IPA
Availability: 12oz bottles, Draft
Return: November, 2015

Stone Brewing Co. & Sierra Nevada team up with a hoppy result

Stone Brewing Co. and Sierra Nevada have teamed up, and the result will be in glass and bottles very soon. This is NXS IPA.

What it is.

Stone/Sierra Nevada NXS IPA is a blend of fresh hop IPAs, aged in used spirits barrels. Sierra Nevada founder Ken Grossman, and Stone brewmaster Mitch Steel split the collaboration right down this middle. 50% of the beer was aged in rye whiskey barrels, while 50% was aged in gin barrels. Finally, the resulting beer was blended with fresh IPA, resulting in something truly hoppy… and special.

This special-edition beer conveys the true character of collaboration with touches of inventiveness and creativity. Two batches of an IPA were brewed and expertly blended to craft this multilayered beer. The first batch was split down the middle, with 50% being aged in gin-infused bourbon barrels and the remaining half aged in rye whiskey barrels.

Sierra Nevada Stone NXS is available in 22 ounce bottles as of December 1st, 2015.

Style: Imperial IPA (Barrel Aged. Rye Whiskey. Gin.)
Hops: Magnum,Amarillo, Chinook, Cascade, Centennial & Mosaic
Availability: 22oz Bottles
Debut: 12/1/15

8.2% ABV

World Wide Wrestling’s Steve Austin loves drinking beer. (Ever get your ass kicked by him in the ring, he will be chugging beer over your bruised carcass.)

He’s been spotted drinking the likes of SweetWater IPA and Red Brick’s Hoplanta while in the city. So when an opportunity came up to brew a beer with El Segundo Brewing, it was a no brainer.

This week, El Segundo Broken Skull IPA will be released, a hoppy collaboration with Stone Cold himself. The IPA is brewed with Cascade, Citra and Chinook hops, and is designed to finish bone dry.

Broken Skull IPA: A bad-ass 6.7% IPA designed by Steve Austin and ESBC for the working man & woman. It features Citra, Cascade, and Chinook hops to deliver big flavor with an easy finish. Now stop reading and start enjoying this awesome beer! Cheers! Steve

El Segundo Broken Skull IPA will debut in the brewery’s tap room on November 13th. Stone Cold himself will be behind the bar pouring. Tickets are $40 dollars, which gets you a bottle of beer, signed poster, and photo op.
