An India Pale Ale made with 100% New Mexico ingredients will soon benefit a volunteer fire department.
Beer Creek Brewing Co. has brewed up Get to da Hoppa IPA. A portion of the proceeds will go toward the Turquoise Trail Fire Department. The beer will be released on May 14 and will only be available at the brewery, at 3810 N.M. 14 in Santa Fe.
“So the Chinook hop is what we use in that beer,” Beer Creek co-owner Rich Headley said. “And it’s also the name of the helicopter, the Chinook helicopter, which they use to fight fires. And it’s also what Arnold Schwarzenegger said in ‘Predator’ was ‘Get to the choppa.’ And so it’s Get to da Hoppa. It’s really kind of fun.”
