Alpine Beer Co. Re-Releases Windows Up IPA
When it comes to West Coast Style IPAs, one brewery that has led this category has been Alpine Beer. The iconic Southern California craft brand and subsidiary of Tilray Brands, Inc. has announced the return of its renowned Windows Up India Pale Ale.
Windows Up made its debut back in 2016 and impressed IPA fans with its harmonious blending of Mosaic and Citra hops that are well balanced by a malt bill of oats and wheat. Piney aromas mingle with grapefruit, lemon, lime, and berry notes, with complexity added by a lingering resinous presence and creamy mouthfeel. The beer pours a hazy golden straw color with a thick white foam and sits at 7.5% ABV.
“Alpine fans loved Windows Up, and it’s been our most requested beer since we retired it several years ago,” said Ty Gilmore, President of U.S. Beers for Tilray Beer. “Windows Up, which is a fun nod to the beer’s dank and resinous flavors, is another brilliant expression of the West Coast-style IPA that’s unmistakably Alpine. It carries the highest ABV of the Alpine lineup for those seeking bigger, more flavorful beers.”
Windows Up, a complex West-Coast style IPA featuring bright tropical and citrus aromas followed by resiny pine and dank notes, is available throughout the Western United States in six-packs of 12-ounce cans.
