Karl Strauss Brewing Co. and Automatic Brewing Company joined forces with\u00a0San Diego Urban Timber to brew a beer in honor of Earth Day and Arbor Day celebrations. Urban Arbor IPA was brewed with locally-grown juniper trees and will generate proceeds to benefit Friends of Balboa Park, a non-profit that specializes in maintaining the trees in Balboa Park.
\nCollaboration, craftsmanship, and environmental sustainability are a few of the values these local brewers share with the artisans of SD Urban Timber, whose mission is to breathe new life into fallen trees that would otherwise end up in landfills.\u00a0The group came together to support a cause they share passion for and combined their talents to produce a beer perfectly fit for the occasion.
\nUrban Arbor IPA was brewed at the original Karl Strauss brewery in downtown San Diego, using juniper provided by SD Urban Timber. The result is a West Coast IPA with a light malt profile that showcases piney aromatics and juniper wood notes that shine through a clean, crisp finish.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0
\n“This beer is a great example of the collaborative nature within our local brewing community, and our desire to use our talents to support a greater good,” says Paul Segura, brewmaster, Karl Strauss Brewing Co.\u00a0
\n“The recipe for this beer was inspired by the trees themselves.\u00a0We used Cascade and Chinook hops, which have piney, resinous flavors and added juniper berries and wood from local trees to complement those characteristics and create an IPA that really represents the cause we\u2019re supporting.”
\nUrban Arbor IPA is now pouring on draft at both breweries\u2019 Tasting Rooms, all Karl Strauss brewpubs in San Diego, and select craft beer bars around town.\u00a0Keep an eye out for this tasty brew throughout the upcoming celebrations, which includes Arbor Day on Friday, April 27.\u00a0Grab a pint to help support Friends of Balboa Park\u00a0and their efforts to maintain the natural beauty of our local park.
