Huma-Lupa-Licious

This gem is honored with the name of the hop plant, Humulus lupulus, and is Short’s best selling India Pale Ale. It has such an abundant amount of hops that it sensually provides a punch to the palate. The numerous hop varieties used in its creation render a delicious bitter taste and enticing citrus aroma. The hearty malt bill melds with the hops to create a perfect balance.

    Tried one at Slows in Detroit and loved it!

  • Matthew Hanson

    My dad took me to Bellaire for my 20th birthday for a golf trip. Little did I know the main reason for the four hour drive was so he could have this beer on tap

    I’m a heavy handed hops lover. Your beer Huma Lumpa Licious hit the bulls eye! Thank you very much.

    I really hope to see Short’s Brew at the World Beer Expo in Frankenmuth this spring.

  • Todd Moore

    WOW! Very, very awesome IPA with a lot more happening than just hop overload. Just bought today at Binny’s in IL. Great job!

    Huma Lupa Licious…Very unique. Love the Hoppyness and malt is just right! Also, love the giant pinecone on the front of the bottle!!! Haha…j/k

  • allison

    was just introduced to this beer (and this company) on tuesday. i loved it!! can’t wait to try the other beers..love to support a michigan company!

  • Bob Jefferson

    Loved the beer, I was hooked on Hopslam, but its gone, Huma-Lupa-licious taste just as good, without the honey, now I’m hooked on yours, what is the alchohol content?

  • John A.

    A local pub near my home has this on tap and I love it. It smells and tastes absolutely delicious. Thank you for creating this delicious beverage. I’ll be visiting the brewery this summer for sure.

  • Bill

    Huma Lupa is far and away the best beer I have ever had. At the first sip, it seemed to have an unusually strong hops flavor, but I quickly adapted. It is super smooth and has a very pleasant aftertaste. Please keep up the excellent work.

  • Troy Brouwer

    Favorite beer, love it! what is the Alcohol %?

  • Vasili

    I love this IPA. alot of the popular ones out there are very sweet and syrupy tasting. i like my beers dry. this one is perfect.

  • Rick Reid

    I must confess (and sorry to mention your competitor, Bell’s Two Hearted of which I’m also a fan and when I’m rarely willing to part with $15 -$16/six, HopSlam) but this is an outstanding IPA and given the choice, I’d probably opt for the Huma Lupa Liscious. I did not think I’d find a replacement for Bells IPA but this has earned a spot in my fridge this summer. Great Hop/Malt balance – Well done!

  • mike z.

    At Stone brewery in escondido CA, missing human-lupa-licious!

  • jim l.

    The Huma Lupa has just topped my list ahead of Founder’s IPA and New Holland Mad Hatter. (However, those are great beers as well)

  • Jake

    Bring it full force to Chicago. A couple underground places have had it, but we need it legally! So damn good.

  • Ted B.

    Awesome, awesome beer. I tasted it a few years ago, and just recently bought a six pack. The slogan “a theme park in your mouth” is dead on, it’s an explosion of hops! Love it!

  • Pat

    Had a pint a Travelers Club and Tuba Museum in Okemos MI. Awesome beer, seriously i was blown away. This beer has hops as far as the eye can see, and thats how a beer should taste. Good job guys.

  • TJ

    Was in Michigan for MSU @ UM over the weekend, and raided 2 of these from my Dad’s fridge. Unreal. Please get this beer to DC!!!

  • Dustin

    This beer is fantastic, by far my favorite out there. And Pat, I go to Travelers club often just for one of these off the tap. Great place.

  • http://dluxart.blogspot.com Dan

    One of my fav IPA’s, hands down!

  • Nate

    Best IPA in Michigan, and I’ve sampled them all.

  • SBC Crew

    Thanks for the support Nate! Glad you like it.

    A friend of mine gave me a case of this for my birthday. Accepting it was a mistake. Now I buy it by the case. This stuff is liquid gold.

    Until recently my local pub had it in tap. They no longer do. I think I need to change pubs.

  • Wes

    I’m visiting Michigan from San Francisco for the holidays and picked this up in a random beer grab at a grocery store in GR. Have to say I am very glad I picked it up. I love the IPAs of the west coast and this one is right up there with the best. I’m reviewing it on my blog right now to let the west coasters know that Michigan has great beer that isn’t from Founders. Cheers.

  • bill

    hands down best Beer I’ve ever had.

    what’s the percent alcohol? I drank 4 the other day and felt quite hammered.

    I LOVE THIS BEER !!!!!!!!!!!!

    well done

  • Peter

    I had a Huma-Lupa-Licious at Zingerman’s Road House in Ann Arbor tonight. What a great beer! Thanks!
