On your grail list. We'll tell you when it lands.“Saturated citrus, warm but hides the 10.6 well. Worth the hunt.” — a reader · 94
This is the 3rd of 9 filings we hold from Anchorage Brewing Company. It is one of 183 double / imperial ipa labels approved in July 2026. It cleared 3 days after it was filed. The label names 5 hops — Citra, Citra, Strata, Riwaka and Krush, and carries ddh, dry-hopped on the front.
A stylized skull rendered in red and black ink dominates the upper centre of the label, with a white vertical band running through the face and two curved red horns or bands sweeping across the top. The skull's eyes are marked with white X symbols, and the lower jaw shows detailed tooth work. The beer name appears in large, sans-serif capitals down the left edge in white type on black. Regulatory and brewery information occupy the lower portion and right edge. The label is printed on a solid black ground.
From the label“Brewed in collaboration with Brujos Brewing. Brewed with Citra Hops. DDH with Citra Hops, Strata Hops, Riwaka Hops, and Krush Hops.”
