The story behind it
Founded in Chico, California, in 1980 by homebrewers Ken Grossman and Paul Camusi, Sierra Nevada Brewing Company is one of America's premier pioneer craft breweries. Known for their uncompromising environmental sustainability and commitment to whole-cone hops, they helped spark the modern craft beer revolution.
Born out of Sierra Nevada's custom-built dry-hopping device, the 'Hop Torpedo', this beer revolutionized dry-hopping science. The custom stainless steel vessel controls how much essential hop oil is extracted, delivering massive hop aroma without excessive bitterness.
