This is the 29th of 29 filings we hold from Lolev Beer. It is one of 100 ipa (other/unspecified) labels approved in August 2026. It cleared 3 days after it was filed. The label names 4 hops — Freestyle Riwaka, Freestyle Nelson Bliss, Freestyle NZ Cascade and Wai-iti Cold-Pressed Hop Juice, and carries dry-hopped on the front.
From the label“Label states 'SIDEWINDER / Ultra Hopped Ale' with hops listed as 'Freestyle Riwaka, Freestyle Nelson Bliss, Freestyle NZ Cascade, Wai-iti Cold-Pressed Hop Juice.' The phrase 'Ultra Hopped Ale' and the multiple hop varieties indicate a hop-forward ale. No explicit IPA designation is printed, but the heavy hop emphasis and New Zealand hop varieties (Riwaka, Nelson Bliss, Cascade, Wai-iti) suggest an IPA-family beer. The 7% ABV is consistent with a standard IPA. Classified as ipa_other due to lack of explicit style statement (not 'IPA', 'Hazy IPA', 'West Coast IPA', etc.), with confidence capped at 0.75 because 'Ultra Hopped Ale' is descriptive but not a formal style designation.”
