SAN DIEGO, California— AleSmith Brewing Company is proud to announce the release of West Peak West Coast IPA, a first-time collaboration with Telluride Brewing Co. This highly anticipated beer has an ABV of 6.75% and features Chinook, Cashmere, and Sabro hops.
West Peak IPA is bursting with flavor from the first sip. Bold and juicy with citrusy aromas of pine and tropical fruit that balance out the flavor profile. A mild bitterness provides the perfect base for its intense hoppy notes. On each sip, drinkers will be hit with a wave of hop-forward goodness that lingers on the palate.
