About this beer

Burial Beer Co. and Alvarado Street Brewery collaborated on “XIII,” a West-Style Double India Pale Ale weighing in at 8.2% ABV. This hazy beer presents a complex flavor profile built upon generous additions of Simcoe, Citra, and Riwaka hops, alongside fresh hop contributions from Simcoe and Cryo Pop. It is brewed with a foundation of two-row barley malt and flaked oats, contributing to a smooth mouthfeel. The label artwork depicts a somber, gothic scene—a dilapidated building with a ghostly figure and a twisted tree, framed by ornate typography and a darkly stylized aesthetic, hinting at the beer’s intensity.

The name and imagery evoke a sense of mystery and the beer itself is described as summoning former truths and searing faces—further cementing the dark, evocative branding. Brewed and canned in Asheville, North Carolina, it utilizes whirlpool and dry-hopping techniques meant to maximize hop aroma and flavor.
