Press Release
Raising a pint to the West Coast vibe, Migration Brewing is stoked to release our latest double IPA, HOP FIRE: an inventive combination of new-school Strata hops blended with Azacca, Azacca Cryo, and classic Centennial—slapping hop lovers across the mouth with ripe mango and passion fruit, citrus tones of pomelo, lemon, lime, and notes of strawberry pine. Go on. Light it up.
This is Migration’s biggest statewide release to date and will be on-tap March 31st and on retail shelves around the region on April 1st. HOP FIRE IIPA is the culmination of the company’s commitment to always innovate, use high quality ingredients, and allow the brew team to execute their vision while meeting market demands. The Shop, original brewery location housed in the back of the NE Glisan pub, is the heartbeat of Migration’s innovation program and the birthplace of HOP FIRE IIPA. After successfully brewing the IIPA there, the process was shifted to the Wilkes production brewery location in Gresham and scheduled for full-time distribution.
“We are proud of all of our IPA's and hop forward beers, but are particularly excited to see how the market responds to this West Coast Double IPA. We designed Hop Fire IIPA to not only fit really well in our current line up, but we think our customers and fans will really enjoy the drinkability of this robust IIPA!” noted Mike Branes, Co-Founder and Head Brewer at Migration Brewing.

With a lot of bootstrapping and a little luck, they have since opened four pub locations within Portland. As an award-winning brewery, the Migration team takes great pride in producing world-class beers that embrace innovation while respecting classic styles.
