New Releases: Pipeworks Unicorn's Revenge, Chipotle Smoked Porter, and Great Lakes Alchemy Hour

It's a great week for new beer releases. Pipeworks Brewing Co. announced two new additions to it's growing family of over 40 beers and Great Lakes Brewing Co. released a new seasonal.

First up, the long awaited Unicorn's Revenge, a very pale 10% ABV double IPA brewed with a combination of American hops (Amarillo & Centennial) and New Zealand hops (Nelson Sauvin & Pacifica). No bittering hops used in this one so expect the full fruity flavors from these hop varieties without the intense bitterness. Pipeworks also released a 7.5% ABV Chipotle Smoked Porter brewed with cherrywood smoked malt and a little Chipotle heat.

Lastly, Great Lakes Brewing released a new seasonal this past week called Alchemy Hour, a 9.4% ABV double IPA brewed with Mosaic and Nugget hops and a touch of sweet honey malt. I have a 4 pack in my fridge that I'll be cracking into this weekend so expect a review sometime next week.

Pick up these great beers when you see them because they're likely to disappear from the shelves fast!
