Fuel is the newest beer in HUB's rotating Hazy IPA Series. Organic
malted barley and generous amounts of rolled oats and organic wheat give
this beer all the haze and fluff combined with supreme drinkability. El
Dorado, Eukanot, and organic Citra hops give this beer a beautiful
passionfruit bouquet. The beer will be tapped at their three pubs, and
each pub will be stocked with limited 16oz four-packs. There will be ten
cases at their Vancouver brewpub, three at BikeBar, and forty-seven at
the flagship brewpub in SE Portland. The four-packs won't last long
though, so make sure to get them quickly.<br /><br />Put The Kettle On is
an American Kettle Sour Ale brewed with the help of Brew Dr. Kombucha!
HUB and Brew Dr. Kombucha are both members of 1% For The Planet, giving
back one percent of their sales to environmental organizations, so the
partnership makes sense. This light and crisp, sour beer was brewed with
organic rose, organic chamomile, organic lavender and organic Jasmine
green tea, the same ingredients Brew Dr. uses in their Love brand
kombucha. It was then dry hopped with Amarillo and Lemon Drop hops for
sweet citrus and lemony characteristics. HUB will have limited draft at
their three pubs and with limited distribution in Oregon.</span></span></div>

This session beer was originally created for the 2015 Oregon Brewers Fest and showcases two favorite hop varietals: Galaxy and Eldorado. Galaxy provides juicy notes that are reminiscent of peach and apricot, while Eldorado screams pineapple and lime zest. Breakside backs these up with a healthy dose of Comet hops, a heritage hop varietal, overlooked for many years and now gaining popularity again due to its intense stone fruit and citrus character. Also included in the summery brew are Two Row, Maris Otter, Flaked Rice and Light Crystal malts. Rainbows & Unicorns has an ABV of 5.1% and 32 IBUs.</span></span></span></div>

This one would be great at a backyard barbeque, paired with grilled octopus, smoked spare ribs or any spicy summer favorite.”</span></span></span></div>

PORTLAND, Ore. (April 19, 2018) – The <b>Cheers to Belgian Beers</b> festival,
which showcases around 75 Belgian-style beers brewed by Oregon craft
brewers, has announced details for this year’s event. The 12th annual
festival will take place <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_879439640" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ">June 1 and 2</span></span> at The North Warehouse at <a href="https://maps.google.com/?q=723+N.+Tillamook+St&entry=gmail&source=g">723 N. Tillamook St</a>. Hours are <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_879439641" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ">1pm to 9pm</span></span> <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_879439642" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ">on Friday</span></span> and <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_879439643" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ">12pm to 8pm</span></span> <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_879439644" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ">on Saturday</span></span>.<br /><br />Advance
discount tickets are on sale now at GetMyPerks, which is offering two
tasting glasses and 16 drink tickets for $28 (a $40 value), while
supplies last. Drink packages at the door will cost $20 for a souvenir
beer goblet and eight drink tickets (only one glass and eight tickets
will be sold to any one person at any one time).<br /><br />The festival is
donating $1 from every ticket package sold to House That Beer Built, a
partnership between Habitat for Humanity Portland/Metro East and the
local craft beer industry. This exciting new collaboration celebrates
the strength and creativity of Oregon’s craft beer industry, along with
its passion for community involvement. Participating breweries and
businesses pledge to raise funds with the goal of collectively raising
$75,000 to fully sponsor a home for a Portland family. Learn more about
Habitat’s work at <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&q=http://habitatportlandmetro.org/&source=gmail&ust=1524318544316000&usg=AFQjCNEMA8GWTBr4BWq-iHEDoljPjce_eA" href="http://habitatportlandmetro.org/" target="_blank">Habitatportlandmetro.org</a>.<br /><br />What makes this festival stand out is the fact that every beer is potentially made using the same primary yeast strain: <b>Precious</b>. Precious
is a classic Belgian yeast that features a very mild phenolic character
balanced with moderate fruitiness. This year, brewers were also given
the option to add a secondary aging strain, <b>Suburban Brett</b>,
a brettanomyces yeast that shines when used in wood barrels, producing
complex and balanced aromas of sour cherry and dried fruit.<br /><br />To
ensure diversity among the beers submitted—as well as show off the
creativity of Oregon's craft brewers— the color and strength of
each brewery’s beer is determined by a dart throw. Depending on where
the dart lands on the board determines whether that brewery will brew a
Belgian-style beer that is light or dark in color, with amber as
the midpoint; and low or high in alcohol, with six percent being the
midpoint. Breweries that hit a bullseye get a wild card and can select
their own color and strength. The dart throw is held in January, giving
the breweries plenty of time to determine their submission.<br /><br />Portland’s
Cheers to Belgian Beers takes place inside The North Warehouse as well
as outside in the tented parking lot. Food is available from Urban
German Grill and Monk’s Deli; Brewed Oregon will be selling Oregon craft
beer gear and apparel. Street parking is available, but limited.
Attendees are encouraged to take public transportation — the TriMet Bus
Line 35 stops one block away and the Yellow Max Line stops two blocks
away — or ride their bike, with complimentary bike parking available.<br /><br />The
festival is seeking volunteers, which receive a festival goblet, eight
drink tickets, a t-shirt and free admission after their shift (an OLCC
servers permit is not required to participate as a volunteer server
at this event).

<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">As
we approach the highest of holidays, we here at Lagunitas like to sit
back, relax, and reflect on how we got here. How do we do that, you ask?
By rolling one up and popping an oh-so-dank Waldos, of course!<br />
<br />
Wayyyy back in 1971 some high-schoolers who were calling themselves the Waldos met one afternoon at <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_879439639" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ">4:20</span></span>
in the front courtyard of their school near the statue or Louis
Pasteur. They set out in a ’66 Impala armed with a 'treasure map' on a
journey to find a Secret Garden near Point Reyes. They met there at the
same time everyday and continued their quest. They never found the
Secret Garden... but they keep lookin'. A few years later a young man
named Tony Magee was driving on those very same roads to his new brewery
– Lagunitas. West Marin had become the birthplace for both the beer and
the Waldos; and thus a delicious, heady brew was born.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"></span></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe width="320" height="266" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/shiqhFvI46Y/0.jpg" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/shiqhFvI46Y?feature=player_embedded" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
<br />
Every year in April we invite the Waldos to help brew (and imbibe) our
Waldos Special Ale; and while they may mumble a bit, the beer speaks for
itself. We recorded the whole story, and our Founder Tony Magee and
Beer Weasel Ron Lindenbusch will tell it to ya exactly as it happened,
er, as best as they can remember it, anyway. Feel free to share this
video far and wide, and best of luck to all the treasure hunters out
there…<br />
<br />
We didn’t stop with Waldos, though.

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">The
Brewers Association reports that IPA is now the third most popular
style of all beers, following only American lagers and light lagers. IPA
has 3.1 percent of the total beer market by volume, 6.4 percent in
retail dollar sales, and is between 24 - 33 percent
of the craft category.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">“There’s
no mistaking that we are living in the heyday of IPA,” declares
Cantwell. “We’re enjoying a style of beer that would have been deemed
undrinkable by its earlier 18th and 19th century
consumers. Brewers are using a wide range of ingredients, from cocoa
nibs, <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="m_-7025362335463247588__Hlk511837114">
coffee, fruits, and vegetables</a>, to spices, herbs, and even wood, to push the boundaries of the style.”</span></div>

the most well-respected and experienced craft brewers in the world,
Cantwell provides scores of tips and methods for first-time brewers and

brew and shares the story of how and why the proliferation of American
IPA came to be.</span></div>

Brewing’s company values reflect the city itself: original, solid,

The brewery was born here, and the city helped raise us. We will always

city and the people who give the city its character,” said Robert

Company's original packaging, it also reflects the city itself, taking
on the geographic layout of Portland. </span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10pt;">"The
brand mark refers to some of the first signage created for the tap
house in 1986 combined with the modern geometric design popular at that
time. The stem of the “P” follows the path of the Willamette River as it
runs through the center of the city, while border elements on the badge
were inspired by Portland's city flag. Our goal was to create something
that not only reflected Portland Brewing’s history, but created a
strong symbol for the brand in years to come,” said Sean Barrett,
Creative Director at Studio Mega.</span></div>

Brewing’s original line of “damn good” beers, while respecting the
history behind the beer. The wrap-around labels of the “Portland

well, with MacTarnahan’s in green tartan. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: black; font-size: small;">Redhook
was born out of the entrepreneurial spirit of early 1980s in the heart
of Seattle. While the term didn’t exist at the time, Redhook became one
of America’s first craft breweries with its focus on creating a better
beer. From a modest start in a former transmission shop in the Seattle
neighborhood of Ballard, to a Fremont trolley barn that housed The
Trolleyman brewpub, to its current breweries in Seattle, Wash., and
Portsmouth, N.H., Redhook has become one of America’s most recognized
craft breweries. Redhook opened a 10-barrel brewpub in the Capitol Hill
neighborhood of Seattle in 2017.</span></span></div>

variants and hybrids of IPAs, Pyramid sought to develop a novel recipe
at the leading edge of brewing

really excited to debut Berry Tart to the Outburst line,” said Head
Brewer Ryan Pappe. “Our brewing philosophy celebrates passion for
adventure and craft brews,
and we’re taking it to the next level. Adding berry fruits to beer is a
first for us! The result is a great balance of tartness and hoppy-ness

prides itself on seeking the best homegrown ingredients. The amazing
Pacific Northwest regional resources like glacial water runoff and
flavorful hops grown in
our backyards of the Yakima and Willamette Valleys provides an
incredible amount of inspiration to brew and enjoy craft beer. Berry
Tart is brewed with Nugget and Centennial hops, dry-hopped with Calypso
and Denali and infused with hibiscus, cranberries and
black currants. The key ingredients for Berry Tart are sourced locally
with exclusively Pacific Northwest hops and cranberries and black
currants from Oregon Fruit Products in the Willamette Valley.

hop-forward tart IPA is
not a sweet or sour IPA, but the distinct flavor was made for those
beer lovers who crave adventure.”

sessionable that allowed us all to experiment while staying true to our
craft roots,” said Ross Koenigs, New Belgium Research and Development
Brewer. “This easy drinker is perfect for the pitch, especially if your
team is playing across the globe with a start time of <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_518503724" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ">7 a.m.</span></span>”</span></span></span></div>

Kick Kolsch pours a very light gold color with a light haze and a
creamy sip. This light-bodied beer starts with a hint of sweetness
before hitting the back of the net with a bitter finish. </span></span></span></div>

is so satisfying and enjoyable to be a part of this global community of
friendly and collaborative craft brewers,” said Bryan Baird, Brewmaster
at Baird. “It’s even better being a beer lover with a keen affinity for
crisp and refreshing styles like kolsch, particularly ones deftly and
creatively spiced or fruited. I can’t wait to tear into several pints of
Bicycle Kick Kolsch this summer while cheering on my team.”</span></span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">Additionally,
in 2017 the number of operating breweries in the U.S. grew 16 percent,
totaling 6,372 breweries, broken down as follows: 3,812 microbreweries,
2,252 brewpubs,
202 regional craft breweries and 106 large or otherwise non-craft
brewers. Small and independent breweries account for 98 percent of the
breweries in operation. Throughout the year, there were 997 new brewery
openings and only 165 closings— a closing rate
of just 2.6 percent. Combined with already existing and established
breweries and brewpubs, craft brewers provided more than 135,000 jobs,
an increase of greater than 6,000 from the previous year.</span>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">“Beer
lovers want to support businesses that align with their values and are
having a positive impact on their local communities and our larger
society,” added Watson. “That’s
what small and independent craft brewers are all about. The ability to
seek beers from small and independent producers matters.”

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">To
educate beer lovers about which beers are independently produced, the
BA launched the certified independent seal in June 2017. More than 3,100
independent brewers have
committed to adopting it. </span></div>

<h5>
<sup>1</sup>An American craft brewer is small, independent and
traditional. Small: Annual production of 6 million barrels of beer or
less (approximately 3 percent of U.S. annual sales). Beer production is
attributed to the rules of alternating proprietorships.
Independent: Less than 25 percent of the craft brewery is owned or
controlled (or equivalent economic interest) by an alcoholic beverage
industry member that is not itself a craft brewer. Traditional: A brewer
that has a majority of its total beverage alcohol
volume in beers whose flavor derives from traditional or innovative
brewing ingredients and their fermentation. Flavored malt beverages
(FMBs) are not considered beers.</h5>
<h5>
<sup>2</sup>Absolute figures reflect the dynamic craft brewer data
set as specified by the craft brewer definition. Growth numbers are
presented on a comparable base.

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #222222;"><strong>JUNEAU, Alaska (March 28, 2018)</strong> –
Beer drinkers will soon see a new variety 12-pack from Alaskan Brewing,
one which revolutionizes the sampler pack phenomenon. Take a peek
inside the box with the Frontier Pack’s interactive window feature,
which allows interested shoppers a chance to see, touch, turn –
everything but taste the rotating beer styles inside the pack. These
beer-viewing windows provide the opportunity for consumers to pinpoint
exactly which rotating styles are included.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #222222;"> </span>
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span><span style="color: #222222;">“Humans
are curious by nature, and we’ve all really enjoyed working on a
project and packaging that allows that curiosity and creativity to
flourish,” said Tasha Heumann, Brand Coordinator at Alaskan Brewing.
“The interactive nature of the window feature is super fun and cool, and
definitely filled a need that we saw. People want to be able to see
what beer they’re getting inside a variety pack, and it’s exciting and a
lot of fun to get that interaction going before the beer has even left
the store.” </span></span></span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span><span style="color: #222222;">Each
Frontier Pack will include staples Alaskan Amber and Icy Bay IPA, along
with two other styles. The first, a limited-edition style, will be a
limited release beer only available for a short time, and could be a fan
favorite, a new style, or an experimental brew. What’s found in one
pack may not be seen in the next due to the limited nature of these
styles. The other, a brewers’ choice style, will be an exclusive brew
selected by one of Alaskan’s team of brewers, who will handpick their
favorite beer of the moment to be included in the pack. </span></span></span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span><span style="color: #222222;">“We
all love trying fun, different beers, and wanted to figure out a way to
give people that variety that we love and make sure there’s something
for everyone, while allowing the them more freedom of choice,” said
Scott McHenry, Alaskan Brewer. “Putting limited edition beers in here
means we get to be creative and play around with styles some, or bring
back fan favorites from years past. Having a brewers’ choice beer in the
Frontier Pack really gives people the chance to get inside our heads a
little bit, to see what beer <em>we’re </em>all about right now. Every
brewer has those beers that they’re totally crazy about, so this is a
fun way to share a little window into who we are and what we love.” </span></span></span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span><span style="color: #222222;">The Frontier Pack will be available in participating markets at the end of March. </span></span></span></span></span><br />

It has notes of white grapes, pineapple, and pine and tropical aromas of honeydew melon and passion fruit that lead you to a crisp, fruity, and clean finish.

So let’s toast this beer’s storied and delicious history with a hearty, “Helles Yeah!” With 4.8% ABV and 25 IBUs, this special brew features Weyermann Pilsner, Weyermann Barke Pilsner and Acidulated malts and Perle and Tettnang hops.</span></span></span></div>

These beers are known for being tart, lite on the palate, dry, fruity and complex. pFriem Saison is a fragrant ale ready to warm any palate with tropical notes of guava and kumquats. Featuring Gambrinus Canadian Pilsner and Gambrinus Wheat malts and German Tettnang, Sorchi Ace and Motueka hops, Saison has an ABV of 6.5% and 32 IBUs.</span></span></span></div>

year-round release offers a mystical marriage of hops and hemp that
fills the senses with a ground-breaking blend of herbal olfactory like
no other beer on the market. </span></span></span></div>

<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">“Let’s
face it, brewers have been trying to get cannabis-like aromas from hops
for years, but it’s always missing a certain something,” said Ross
Koenigs, New Belgium’s Research and Development Brewer. “The Hemperor
HPA is possibly the first beer to deliver meaningful hemp flavors and
aromas.”</span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">

<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">

</span></span><br />
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">The
Hemperor HPA showcases the game-changing union of hops and hemp, plants
genetically related that produce similar organic aromatic compounds
known as terpenes. This ale is brewed with hemp hearts (the meat of the
seed, minus the shell) and dry-hopped with Simcoe and experimental HBC
522 hops to create a dank, pungent hop aroma balanced by a sweet, mildly
bitter finish. <span style="color: black;">Federal law prohibits brewers
from using hemp leaf and flower, so New Belgium brewers found a creative
solution using other natural plant materials that perfectly emulate
those hemp terpenes. </span>The Hemperor HPA contains no THC or CBD.</span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">

</span></span><br />
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">“This
beer has been over two years in the making, most of the time spent
learning and reacting to laws that really suppress this crop’s usage,”
Koenigs said of the beer that is currently banned in Kansas.
“Flavor-wise, this the beer we wanted to make, but due to misinformed
laws governing the use of industrial hemp, we had to take a creative and
long-winding road to get to this point. <span style="color: black;">We’re
happy with where we landed, and we’ll be working to change federal
regulation so that one day we can brew The Hemperor HPA with hemp
flowers and leaves as we originally envisioned.”</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">The
restrictive regulatory process around brewing The Hemperor HPA gives
New Belgium the opportunity and platform to raise awareness around the
social, environmental and economic benefits of industrial hemp. Beer

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">BEND, OR (Thursday,
March 22nd, 2018) Expanding our packaged beer offerings, GoodLife Brewing is
excited to announce the release of Evil Sister Double IPA in bottles and they
will be available year round. Evil Sister Double IPA is created from taking the
malt bill from Sweet As! Pacific Ale, and turning up the hops giving it the
kick of a bigger, more evil sister but still drinking like its smaller little
sister. </span></span></div>

</span></span><div class="Default" style="border: medium none; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">Evil
Sister gives hop flavors of peach, citrus, and a slight herbal tea aroma that
all play well together for a complex nose. This leads to a very balanced Double
IPA that is a little of both worlds: strong and refreshing. Quite evil indeed.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">Evil
Sister Double IPA was originally brewed for the 2013 Oregon Brewers Festival
and since the first batch, it quickly turned into one of our most sought after
beers despite being brewed once a year. GoodLife Brewing co-owner, Ty Barnett,
said “Evil Sister is one of those beers that people consistently ask about.
With having had limited brewing capacity in the past, we knew that when we had
more capacity this was going to be one of the first beers we added year round.
We are excited to share this with all of our loyal supporters and we know Curt
would be proud.”</span></span></div>

will be able to enjoy Evil Sister Double IPA year round with limited
distribution in Oregon, Idaho, and Washington in both draft and 500ml bottles
starting the first week in April.</span></span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
The brewers at Full Sail have a zest for life – and beer. In case you were wondering,
<i>Citrus maxima</i> comes from the scientific name of the pomelo, one
of the three primary ancestors of citrus fruits. Playing on this, as
well as the unique grapefruit-like character of pomelo, Citrus Maxima is
an easy-drinking pale ale that’s well stocked
with Simcoe and Citra hops, while fresh pomelo and grapefruit peels
lend citrus and grapefruit notes.

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“This was a fun project, but certainly complicated
and labor intensive at this scale,” says Full Sail Brewmaster Greg Doss.
“Our goal was to blend aromas from citrus-forward hops with fresh
grapefruit and pomelo in a refreshing and drinkable
pale ale. I think we did it.” You’ve heard of dry hopping – so why not
dry peeling? “Hundreds of pounds of fresh citrus peel are infused into
each batch,” says Doss, “but it’s worth it.”

<span style="color: black;">“With our location in hop
country, we’re fortunate to collaborate with women in all aspects of
the industry who grow hops, brew, and manage the sales, marketing, and
finances along the way.” said Jackie Beard,
Bale Breaker’s Quality Manager and local brew day coordinator. “It’s an
honor to showcase the hops of the Yakima Valley and the women who bring
them from the soil to your glass!”

Society to produce the exclusive hop blend, we wanted to create an
opportunity for people in all aspects of the hop and beer industries to
come together and brew something special to celebrate
women,” says Kate Ruffing, the chief marketing officer at YCH, who
also participated in the brew day. "It is just as much about the brewing
experience as it is about the beer, and we are grateful to have been a
part of this all-ladies brew day to experience
it firsthand.” </span></div>

<span style="color: black;">Give us your tired, your
thirsty, your masses of women yearning to brew free. Lady Lupulin
Blonde Ale is a tribute to the all-female fields of hop vines that
produce the cones that lend their fruity, dank, grassy,
and tropical aromas to the hoppy beers of the Northwest. Brewed with
YCH’s Pink Boots Blend, plus a little extra Simcoe®, Citra® and Loral®,
the beer is a delicately-hopped session ale perfect for spring. We lift
our lamp and raise a glass to the women of
our industry who get the tanks clean and their boots dirty in the
fields and the brewhouse to bring the taste of Yakima Valley to your
glass. Available on draught at Bale Breaker’s Yakima taproom.
