Huma Lupa Licious isn’t a name on a fake ID – and even if it were, it would now be legal. That’s right – the iconic IPA from Short’s Brewing is now 21 years old, and this Up North brewery is asking you to celebrate with them!
What makes Huma Lupa Licious so wonderful? Well, Huma was the first pint to be served in the pub of Short’s Brewing way back in 2004. Today, it’s a Midwest IPA with a whopping five different hops, lending to a flavor profile that brings in a great bitterness to complement malty notes and citrus and wildflower aroma.

With no cover or age restriction, it’s incredibly easy to cheer to 21 years for Huma Lupa Licious through some plain old good vibes.
It wouldn’t be much of a party without prize bags. Huma Lupa Licious will be sold for a limited amount of time in a special 21-pack for $21. You’re not getting the math wrong – that is indeed a dollar a can. Open up the unique pack to see an example of how Short’s Brewing is well known for supporting local artists.

Well, the winner will also get to dream in the Huma Lodge just a block away from the place where it all started. Put your hat in the ring before July 31st here!
