Limited Release: A Little Alora IPA 😲
This beer is all about elegance and hop expression. Featuring the Alora hop alongside Simcoe, Quantum Krush, and HBC 682, it’s a bright, aromatic brew with a clean malt base. It’s the kind of beer that makes you say, “Wow,” and then immediately take another sip.
This is a VERY limited batch, so get your hands on these cans while you can.
