NINKASI BREWING ANNOUNCES 2020 FOURTH QUARTER BEER RELEASES

These releases include Velocihoptor Guardian IPA, Sleigh’r Winter Ale, Juicy Domination Tropical IPA in its own 6-pack, and a unique Fall/Winter Variety Pack.

EUGENE, Ore.— Ninkasi Brewing Company is excited to share their new beer releases for the final quarter of 2020. The releases include Juicy Domination Tropical IPA in its own 6-pack of cans (previously a G.O.A.T. Pack exclusive), Sleigh’r Winter Ale as their fall/winter seasonal, and Velocihoptor Guardian IPA, the final installment in Ninkasi’s 19.2oz comic can series featuring art by Dark Horse Comics artists Eduardo Francisco. Their Fall/Winter Variety 12-Pack also includes a unique mixture of brews: Sleigh’r Winter Ale, Oatis Oatmeal Stout, Dawn of the Red IPA, and Steady Orbit Grounded IPA. All offerings are now available.

More information on these new beer releases can be found below.

Velocihoptor Guardian IPA
Within the goddess Ninkasi’s hop fields lurks Velocihoptor, guardian and protector of the mystical hops that power Tricerahops’ ability of flight. After all, the name Velocihoptor is derived from the Latin “velox,” meaning “swift,” and “hoptor,” meaning “hop dinosaur.” When she spots an intruder, this swift hop dino delivers a quick and complex punch: melon, papaya, and orange notes collide with just a touch of honey.
Style: Guardian IPA
Series: Year-Round
Available: Now
ABV: 6.6%
IBU: 50
Malt: 2-Row, Vienna, Honey Malt, Spelt Malt, White Wheat
Hops: Nugget, Azacca, Bru-1, Lotus, Mosaic
Packaging: 19.2oz can; Draft
Distribution: Alaska; Alberta; Arizona; California; Colorado; Idaho; Nevada; Oregon; Washington; and Vancouver, British Columbia.
Points of note: This is the fourth and final installment of Ninkasi Brewing’s 19.2oz. comic cans series featuring art by Dark Horse Comics artist Eduardo Francisco. The series also includes Tricerahops Double IPA and Megalodom Legendary IPA.
Juicy Domination Tropical IPA
Step outside and sink your feet into the crisp, golden sand. Can you smell the slightly sweet, succulence in the air? Juicy Domination is a swirling riptide of papaya, orange, and guava notes bursting all around. It’s an explosion of flavor that finishes smooth and velvety, just like your favorite tropical adventure.

Style: Tropical IPA
Series: Year-Round
Available: Now
ABV: 6.3%
IBU: 40
Malt: 2-Row, Vienna, Flaked Barley, White Wheat

Points of note: Juicy Domination Tropical IPA was previously exclusive to the Ninkasi G.O.A.T. Pack, and available on draft. This is the launch of Juicy Domination in its own 6-pack.

Sleigh’r Winter Ale
Thanks to being strategically wedged between the Pacific Ocean and a bunch of volcanoes, we get some of the deepest snowfalls in the world right here in our backyard. It’s our winter playground. And Sleigh’r is our après-ski. Under its frothy head is a deep, chocolatey malt flavor that’s sweet and warm, with a lasting bitterness. Like a toasty fire on a dark night.

Style: Winter Ale
Series: Seasonal
Available: Now
ABV: 6.3%
IBU: 40
Malt: 2-Row, Vienna, Flaked Barley, White Wheat
