We have kicked off our next round of seasonal curiosities with a beer to celebrate Minnesota's impending release from winter's icy grasp. With hibernation coming to an end, we have launched a hoppy, crisp, ridiculously refreshing take on a Red Lager called Copperpop.

Copperpop (5.6% ABV and 60 IBU) is a red lager brewed with spicy rye malt and hopped up with loads of piney, resinous Columbus, Ahtanum, Rakau, Cascade and Amarillo hops. It's the X on the treasure map of hoppy lagers, and you won't have to go through One-Eyed Willy's boobie traps to find it.

​

Originally brewed as a one-off in celebration of the 300th batch at our original downtown Minneapolis brewery, this West Coast IPA was so well received we had to make it available year-round. It's built on a base of Pilsner malt and heavily hopped with Mosaic, one of our favorite -- and unfortunately nearly impossible to procure -- hop varieties.
