Description
Inspired by the Star Wars original trilogy, the Pop Culture Brews podcast (2019-2021) crew set out on an intergalactic mission to create beer recipes inspired by episodes IV, V, and VI.
For the first episode in the trilogy—A New Hope (1977)—Pop Culture Brews cohost Tyler Maybee developed an American-style pale ale showcasing Citra hops. This lively pale is as bright as Tatooine’s twin suns, Luke’s home planet. Each sip is as refreshing as the last, making it perfect for the desert planet.
Coming in under 5% ABV, A New Hope Pale is the kind of beer you would be drinking at Mos Eisley Cantina, the wretched hive of scum and villainy on Tatooine.
May the wort be with you.
Other Beers in the Trilogy: The Empire Strikes Back Dark Ale and Return of the Jedi Pale Ale
