Word spread among local craft beer lovers when Alpine Beer’s Pat McIlhenney and Ken Anthony of Device Brewing decided to make a collaboration beer.

At the pre-Thanksgiving release party Wednesday, the line was often out the door as folks clamored to try the new IPA, which featured Alpine’s signature hop haze and robust citrus flavor profile.

McIlhenney and Anthony took a moment to talk about how the idea to collaborate came about when the two met at the Great American Beer Festival in Denver.
