Fall IPA - Pandemic Edition is back in stock, freshly canned on Monday! Why is it called "Pandemic Edition" you ask? Historically this beer has always been a celebration of fresh hops since fall is when the North American hop harvest occurs. Fresh or "wet hopped" beers degrade more quickly, and so we've never packaged it in the past and encouraged you to try all our single hop variations on draft. This year we opted to make our Fall IPA using traditional hops (Strata, Citra, and Simcoe for the win!) to give the beer more structural integrity, allowing you to enjoy it at home. And rest assured, just because it's called Fall IPA doesn't mean there's any pumpkin shenanigans in there. Available for pick-up or shipping: https://www.factionbrewing.com/store

NEW BEERS! CITRA CYCLONE 7% ABV ... This IPA is a showcase of one of our favorite hops, CITRA! We used 6 different forms of Citra in this beer. First the mash water was run through our hop back with whole cone Citra hops. T-90 hop pellets were used in the kettle, and Incognito (hop extract) was used in the whirlpool. Then we dry-hopped with fresh Citra hops, Cryo (concentrated lupulin hop oils that have been cryogenically removed from the vegetal part of the hop), and Lupomax (enriched hop pellets concentrated in lupulin resin and oils.) Scroll to see some behind the scenes shots of our hop back and dry hop. The resulting beer? A low bitterness Citra bomb. Enjoy! FALL IPA - PANDEMIC EDITION 7.0% ABV Our Fall IPA has always been a showcase of fresh hops; however the pandemic has brought many challenges. This year we used traditional hops to give the beer more structural integrity, allowing us to offer it in a can for the first time. This year's batch is hopped with Strata, Citra, and Simcoe.
