10 Barrel Mostly Down Hopburst Northwest IPA Coming in 2026
10 Barrel Mostly Down: New 6.1% Hopburst Northwest IPA
A new 10 Barrel Brewing beer is making its way into the spotlight, and this latest Bend, Oregon release brings a familiar name, a fresh label and a distinctly Northwest-focused IPA profile. 10 Barrel Mostly Down is a Hopburst Northwest IPA from 10 Barrel Brewing Co., arriving as part of the brewery’s All Ways Down family. The new beer is listed at 6.1% ABV and is packaged in 12-ounce cans, giving fans another new 10 Barrel IPA to watch for as the brewery continues expanding its lineup of hop-forward beers.
The Mostly Down label immediately leans into the outdoors. Its artwork features a forested mountain landscape, towering evergreens, camping gear, a pickup truck, bicycles and a hammock, creating an unmistakable Pacific Northwest adventure theme. The bold green, white and yellow artwork also makes the 12-ounce can visually distinctive while reinforcing the connection between 10 Barrel Brewing, Bend, Oregon and outdoor culture.

For IPA fans, the most important detail is the beer’s Hopburst Northwest IPA designation. That description places Mostly Down squarely in the hop-forward tradition associated with Pacific Northwest brewing, while the 6.1% ABV keeps it in a range that can appeal to drinkers looking for substantial IPA character without moving into imperial IPA territory. At this point, specific hop varieties, IBU information and official tasting notes have not been provided, so those details remain something to watch for when the beer officially arrives.
Mostly Down is particularly interesting because it connects with 10 Barrel’s All Ways Down family while presenting a new package and beer identity. The brewery has previously used the Hopburst name across its lineup, including Camp Coldie, another 10 Barrel Hopburst Northwest IPA covered by MyBeerBuzz. That earlier beer was packaged in 12-ounce cans, making this new release another notable entry in 10 Barrel’s ongoing exploration of the Hopburst Northwest IPA style.
The new 10 Barrel Mostly Down IPA should attract attention from Oregon craft beer fans, Bend beer enthusiasts, Northwest IPA drinkers and collectors who follow new 10 Barrel Brewing cans. Release timing and distribution details have not yet been announced, so beer hunters will want to keep an eye out for this 6.1% ABV Northwest IPA as it begins appearing in the market.
With its adventurous artwork, 12-ounce can format, 6.1% ABV and Hopburst Northwest IPA designation, Mostly Down looks like a natural addition to the 10 Barrel Brewing beer lineup. MyBeerBuzz will continue following this new Bend beer release and will provide additional release information and tasting notes when they become available soon.

About 10 Barrel Brewing Company:
10 Barrel Brewing Company is a Bend, Oregon craft brewery with a long-running connection to Central Oregon beer culture, outdoor adventure and hop-forward brewing. The brewery began production in Bend in 2006 and has continued building its identity around an energetic approach to beer, pubs and the outdoors. Its stated philosophy, “Brew Beer, Drink Beer, Have Fun Doing It,” reflects the combination of craft beer, social experiences and active Northwest living that has become closely associated with the 10 Barrel name.
The brewery’s Bend roots remain central to the 10 Barrel Brewing story. Its headquarters and production facility are located on NE 18th Street in Bend, Oregon, alongside the East Bend pub. The brewery also operates the West Bend location, giving visitors opportunities to experience 10 Barrel beers in the city where the company began. The brewery information describes the Eastside location as being next to the brewery and production facility, while the West Bend pub features rotating seasonal and one-off beers.
10 Barrel has developed a broad portfolio that includes IPA, pale ale, lager, sour, wheat beer and specialty releases. Its beer lineup has included well-known names such as Apocalypse IPA, Pub Beer, Nature Calls, Profuse Juice and All Ways Down. That variety helps explain why new 10 Barrel Brewing releases can range from approachable everyday beers to hop-focused limited releases and experimental beers. MyBeerBuzz has followed the brewery for years, including coverage of Apocalypse IPA, Pub Beer, Fancy Beer Series releases and newer Hopburst beers.
The brewery has maintained a connection to Pacific Northwest beer culture through its Bend locations and outdoor-oriented brand identity. 10 Barrel’s website emphasizes drinking beer outside, while its Bend pubs offer rotating beers and food in settings designed around the local community and Central Oregon lifestyle. The brewery’s East Bend location also promotes views toward the Cascade Mountains, further connecting the brand to the outdoor environment that surrounds Bend.
Over the years, 10 Barrel Brewing has expanded beyond Bend, opening pubs in Portland and Boise and developing distribution in additional states. Its history records the opening of the Portland brewpub in 2015, a second Bend brewpub in 2017 and earlier expansion into Idaho and Washington. The company later became part of Anheuser-Busch’s High End portfolio before the brand was acquired by Tilray Brands in 2023.
For craft beer enthusiasts, 10 Barrel Brewing remains especially notable for its ongoing experimentation with IPA and hop-driven beer styles. The brewery’s Hopburst releases are a good example of that approach, with MyBeerBuzz previously reporting on Camp Coldie Hopburst Northwest IPA and Apocalypse IPA NA Hopburst. The arrival of Mostly Down adds another 12-ounce canned Hopburst Northwest IPA to the conversation and extends the brewery’s connection to hop-forward Northwest brewing.
Today, 10 Barrel Brewing continues connecting Bend beer, Northwest IPA culture, outdoor recreation and brewpub experiences. For fans tracking Oregon beer releases, IPA cans and Bend craft breweries, 10 Barrel remains a brewery to watch.
