Hapa’s Beer Menu

Wildcardwit
Witbier
You may not know where the night will take you but one thing is always certain when you’re with the Wildcard: a good time. A classic Belgian Witbier brewed with orange peel and coriander seeds. The specialty yeast strain compliments the orange aromatics and flavors with banana and spice notes. This light bodied and pleasantly carbonated beer is an easy drinker at 5.0%.

Hipa! Hipa!
Brut IPA
Cheers friends! Please welcome Hipa Hipa to our taproom. Meaning “cheers” in Hawaiian, Hipa Hipa is our take on a brut IPA. Using magic science we fermented this beer down to a negative gravity leaving an incredibly light and dry beer. Nelson Sauvin hops add ripe gooseberry notes while Galaxy layers in passion fruit and citrus. The result is a crystal clear beer brewed like a champagne! 6.3% ABV, 0 IBU

Hungry Dog
IPA
Our Head Brewer’s beagle lived his life to the fullest. He loved people, walks, and belly rubs. But most of all he loved food and would do almost anything to get it. His namesake beer is one of the original Hapa’s homebrew recipes. This classic West Coast IPA packs citrus punch counterbalanced by a light malty sweetness.

Counter Clockwise
IPA
Storms in the Northern Hemisphere rotate counter clockwise and this IPA is brewed with a hurricane of Northern Hemisphere hops. Loads of late addition kettle hops and two rounds of dry hopping combine with oats in the malt bill to create a juicy, silky smooth ale. Amarillo and both pellet and cryo powder Mosaic hops contribute a floral blend of range, peach, and melon.

Thor’s Helmet
New England Double IPA
The 9th beer in the Hapa’s Brewing Nebula Series of hazy IPAs. Thor’s Helmet is an emission nebula in the constellation Canis Major. We used a specialty yeast strain to boost the hop aromas and flavor in this Hazy DIPA. A blend of heavy hitters Idaho 7, El Dorado, Azacca, and Amarillo result in a beer ripe with papaya, ripe orange, and mango. This pillowy brew is light on bitterness but full of juicy goodness.

Hand of Faith
West Coast Double IPA
Calling all hopheads! Today we release Hand of Faith Double IPA. Named for the largest gold nugget ever discovered with a metal detector, this beer is packed with hop goodness. We blended Centennial, Chinook, Crystal, and Jarrylo hops for assertive pine, apricot, and spicy notes typical of West coast IPAs. Not for the faint of heart at 9.0% ABV and 62 IBU.

Grump Gecko
Kettle Sour w/ raspberry, strawberry, and passion fruit
Grumpy Gecko Kettle Sour is the latest tart beer in the Hapa’s Brewing line up. 48 hours chilling in our brew kettle with some friendly microbes gave this beer a clean and crisp tart character. Then we added just under 300 pounds of raspberry, strawberry, and passion fruit to take things to the next level! It’s hot, this beer is cold and refreshing.

Surly Swan
Kettle Sour w/ Boysenberry, lactose, and vanilla
Surly Swan Kettle Sour is the latest tart beer in the Hapa’s Brewing line up. However, this one has a twist! We threw lactose into the boil adding body and some residual sweetness to the finished beer. Then layered in over 200 pounds of Boysenberry and some Tahitian vanilla beans. The tart, the fruit, the lactose, and the vanilla all interplay and balance each other leaving a beer reminiscent of a boysenberry smoothie.

Galactic Center
New England Double IPA
The 10th beer in the Hapa’s Brewing Nebula Series of hazy IPAs. The Galactic Center isn’t technically a nebula. Sue us. It’s a bad ass image that looks good on a beer can. We went big on this one – using milk sugar, mango puree, and a double dry hopping of over four pounds of Citra and Idaho 7 hops per barrel. The result? A pillowy brew with massive tropical aromas and flavors of pineapple, orange, and mango (duh).

Experience Azacca
Pale Ale
Introducing Experience Azacca, the newest of our single hopped hazy pale ales. Brewed with a simple malt bill of two row barley and oats along with complimentary yeast, this beer showcases the tropical juiciness of Azacca. Zero boil hops and a generous double dry hopping squeeze out every ounce of goodness with no bitterness. Look for papaya, guava, and citrus notes.

Experience Idaho 7
Pale Ale
Introducing Experience Idaho 7, the newest of our single hopped hazy pale ales. The malt bill is kept simple in these beers to let the hop shine through. We don’t hops in the boil but make up for it with large whirlpool and dry hopping additions. A specialty yeast strain is used to complement and enhance the beautiful hop aromas and flavors. We get a heavy does of pineapple upfront with more subtle notes of apricot, mango, and orange.

Crooked Street
Kettle Sour with Mango and Blood Orange
Take 101 North, through San Francisco, and turn right on Lombard Street. There you’ll find the most crooked street in the world! Our beer named for this street spent 48 hours in our brew kettle chilling with some friendly microfauna. The result: a beer with a clean tart foundation. After a boil with a minimal hop addition we layered in a ton of flavor with blood orange and mango puree. Mellow on the sour scale, dry on the finish, and finishing with fruit, this brew is a refreshing sipper for our spring weather.

Suite 90
Saison
We’ve been open in Suite 90 for a little over a year now but it already feels like home. Our Saison pays homage to our homebase with clean pilsner malt character and a fruit forward hop bill. A Belgian Saison yeast lends its own fruit character while also adding some herb and spice. Light bodied and dry in the finish this brew is a perfect sipper for our California weather.

Polar Night
Oatmeal Stout
As the seasons change the days get colder and the nights grow longer. In the Arctic, soon the sun won’t rise at all. Polar Night is a full bodied, jet black oatmeal stout perfect for these long cold nights. 7% ABV to keep you warm with strong coffee notes balanced by sweet caramel and toffee, this brew is perfect for this time of year.

Golden Jubilee
Helles Bock
Named after a 546 carat brown diamond, Golden Jubilee is the second beer in our Diamond Series of lagers. Bright honey colored and crystal clear, this brew balances malty flavors of caramel, fresh baked bread, and toffee with a traditional hop bill. A silky smooth medium body belies the higher alcohol content. This is the perfect beer to warm the body on a winter’s night.

Batch 41
American Wheat Beer
Our 41st brew at Hapa’s Brewing Co. A classic American Wheat Beer but with a twist! A 50/50 wheat to pale malt bill is backed up by northwest hops. Citra and cascade contribute citrus and floral notes to balance the subtle breadiness from the wheat. Hazy and straw colored Batch 41 is approachable yet packed with layers of flavor.

Johnny Rook
Double IPA
West Coast vs. East Coast vs. Northeast. Hazy vs. Clear. Johnny Rook can’t be bothered with labels. A malt bill with body inducing oats but kettle hopped like a West Coast IPA. Assertively dry hopped like the hazies, but fermented with a clean yeast strain. A complex malt bill adds depth and balance but make no mistake, hops rule the roost in this beer. Look for mango, peach, and passion fruit.

Experience Mosaic
Pale Ale
Experience Mosaic is a single hopped, zero IBU, hazy pale ale. How is this possible? No hops were added during the boil! Zero, none, not even one ounce of hop touched boiling wort. We finally added a bunch of Mosaic during the whirlpool and then aggressively dry hopped – twice. The results: a floral fruity beer with notes of berry, tropical fruits, and bubble gum without any bitterness.

Don’t Be Evil
Kettle Sour with Raspberry
Ask yourself ‘is what I’m doing evil?’ If the answer is ‘yes’ don’t do that thing! This kettle sour is definitely not evil. Soured for 48 hours in our kettle with a very light hopping leaves a beer with a clean tartness. Depth and balance is added by aging on raspberry puree. Fruit character is instantly recognizable but not overpowering.

Butterfly Wings
New England Double IPA
The 7th beer in our Nebula Series of New England style IPAs. Butterfly Wings is a planetary nebula in the constellation Ophiuchus. Copious late addition hops and generous double dry hopping result in an aromatic and flavorful beer. A complementary yeast strain was selected to highlight the tropical fruit notes from the hops. This juice bomb oozes pineapple, mango, and stone fruit with very low bitterness.

Star Queen
New England IPA
The 2nd beer in our Nebula Series of New England style IPAs. Star Queen is a cluster of stars in the constellation Serpens. Don’t let the 4.6% ABV fool you! This light colored and hazy IPA, doesn’t lack for flavor. Super refreshing and sessionable but packed with citrus, tropical fruit, and floral notes.

3 Mile
Belgian Tripel
Why did we call this beer 3 mile? Because we brewed it with our good friends at Santa Clara Valley Brewing and our breweries are 3 miles apart. We used a traditional Belgian yeast strain that produces a delicate bouquet of spice and fruit. Slight malt sweetness is masterfully balanced by herbal Noble Hop notes and finishes dry with a hint of alcohol.

Millennium Star
Pilsner
Named for a 203 carat, flawless, pear shaped diamond, Millennium Star is the first in our Diamond Series of lagers. A traditional malt bill consisting of 100% German Pilsner Malt gives this beer a pale straw color and mild malt sweetness. American hops add a twist to the style and contribute a perfect balance of citrus and floral notes.

Mystic Mountain
New England Double IPA
The 5th beer in our Nebula Series of New England style IPAs. Mystic Mountain is a region of star formation found in the Carina Nebula. Golden in color and as hazy as its namesake, this yeast driven double IPA uses a three yeast blend to accentuate the generous double dry hopping. Mosaic, Centennial, and Vic Secret hops lends aromas of freshly cut mango and ripe orange. True to style, this brew is low on bitterness but packed with tropical and citrus favors.

Experience Citra
Pale Ale
Experience Citra is a single hopped, zero IBU pale ale. When brewing this beer not even an ounce of hops was added during the boil. A modest whirlpool addition followed by a generous double dry hop give this beer all the ripe orange flavor and aromatics you’d expect from Citra hops without any bitterness. An expressive yeast specifically selected to complement this beautiful hop enhances the Experience.

Phantom Streak
New England Double IPA
The 4th and final beer in our Nebula Series of New England style IPAs. Phantom Streak is a planetary nebula in the constellation Aquila. Massive late addition hops and a double dose of dry hopping leave this beer dripping with juice aroma and flavor. Ripe Cara Cara Orange, mango, and peach burst out of your glass. Each sip finishes smooth with low bitterness.

Ghost of Jupiter
New England Double IPA
The 3rd beer in our Nebula Series of New England style IPAs. Ghost of Jupiter is a planetary nebula in the Constellation Hydra. Two heavy hitting hops from down under impart juicy flavors of passion fruit, gooseberry, and ripe grape. A sip finishes with a subtle and pleasant bitterness.
