Sensory Description:

Wheels Up opens with a soft, creamy coconut aroma that hints at its plush texture. On the palate, candied papaya and melon notes glide through with juicy momentum, elevated by Sabro’s tropical charm and Citra’s bright citrus bite. The body is pillowy but agile, and the finish is lingering yet clean, like a smooth landing after a vibrant in-air experience.

Brewer's Background:

Founded in 2015 by Sean Buchan and Dan McGuire, Cerebral Brewing has become one of Colorado’s most respected craft producers. Anchored in Denver’s Congress Park and recently expanded to Aurora and West Highlands, Cerebral applies a scientific approach to brewing, backed by an in-house quality lab and a relentless drive for creativity. Their beers range from meticulously crafted lagers to expressive IPAs and barrel-aged wonders, all shaped by a commitment to thoughtful innovation and local community.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve chilled at 45–50°F in a tulip or IPA glass to amplify the hop aromatics and creamy texture. Ideal with tropical ceviche, Thai coconut curry, or even mango sorbet for a dessert pairing that plays on the beer’s fruit-forward profile.

With its tropical complexity and pillowy drinkability, Cerebral Brewing's 'Wheels Up' IPA delivers an elevated IPA experience that’s grounded in quality and takes off with every sip.

Cerebral Brewing

But Cerebral Brewing is more than its beer. Deeply rooted in the community, the brewery has always seen craft beer as a platform for positive change. Each year, they dedicate a portion of profits to local nonprofits, focusing on causes like women’s rights, LGBTQ+ equality, anti-gun violence, and healthcare access. Their monthly Queer Beers events, created by queer staff for the queer community, donate proceeds from every pint to rotating nonprofit partners.
