About this beer

Upper Hand Brewery’s Tropical IPA is a 7.0% ABV American Pale Ale, brewed and canned in Escanaba, Michigan. The label identifies a distinct tropical and piney character, achieved with ingredients not specifically listed but implied by the “IPA” designation and flavor notes. The artwork features a striking alpine scene—dark evergreen trees silhouetted against a bright teal, jagged mountain range—offset by a large, stylized depiction of a hand holding hops. A soaring white bird adds further visual interest.

Warnings on the label offer the typical cautionary language about alcohol consumption and its effects, while also highlighting the brewery's establishment in 2014. The can’s design is a modern take on classic outdoor aesthetics, employing bold geometric patterns and a color scheme that suggests both the forest and the coastal locale of the brewery. A small star rating (4.5/5) is prominently displayed at the top, suggesting a favorable consumer assessment.
