Stony Creek Brewery’s newest beer release, a collaboration with a regional environmental nonprofit, seeks to help protect and improve the land, air and water of Connecticut and Long Island Sound.

Save The Sound Light Lager, a Helles lager is described as “a bright and crisp beer with a slightly sweet flavor and a light mouthfeel,” crafted with floor-malted German malts and Tettnanger hops.

The new beer was developed in collaboration with Save the Sound, and will highlight the value of shared natural resources and raise money for the nonprofit’s mission. For every purchase made, the Branford brewery will donate a portion of the proceeds to Save the Sound.

“Save the Sound and Stony Creek Brewery share a love of Long Island Sound and the outdoors, so it was natural to work together,”  said Stony Creek’s founder Ed Crowley, Sr. in a statement. “When we developed Save the Sound Light Lager, we thought about where it would be enjoyed. This crisp, light lager is perfectly suited to a day appreciating the outdoors. Everyone who purchases the lager will be helping to protect the outdoor places they enjoy.”

Save the Sound president Curt Johnson said Stony Creek’s leadership “shares our passion for clean rivers and an abundant Sound.”

“It’s a unique way to get people all across the region engaged in protecting the Sound and its rivers, fighting climate change, saving endangered lands, and restoring ecosystems,” Johnson said. “We hope Save the Sound Light Lager inspires people to reflect on the clean water that was used to brew it, the air they’re breathing as they enjoy it, and the things we can do together to protect these resources.”

The lager is currently available exclusively on draft at Stony Creek’s taproom and select establishments, and will be soon available in retail locations across the Northeast in both six and 12-pack options.

CROYDON, Pennsylvania – Neshaminy Creek Brewing Company (Neshaminy Creek) rings in a decade of beers and cheers at the Croydon Taproom on Saturday, June 11, 2022, with a 10th Anniversary celebration featuring live music, two anniversary beers, food trucks, tattoos, local artisan vendors, and loads of dog and family-friendly activities. Neshaminy Creek, Bucks County’s first and longest-running production brewery, has recently racked up the craft beer industry’s most coveted awards, including Gold at the Great American Beer Festival® for Croydon is Burning, Wine Enthusiast Top Cream Ale for Better Maize Ahead, and just this month, earned a Gold at the World Beer CupTM for Warehouse Lager.

“The last few years have been an intense learning experience. We came out of crisis to emerge as a stronger, more unified, and better team producing great beer and connecting and sharing experiences with customers whether in our taprooms, at a bar, or in their homes,” says Jenna Ball, CEO of Neshaminy Creek Brewing.

On Saturday, June 11, Neshaminy Creek will release Tenured Triple IPA, brewed with Phantasm, a compound derived from New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc grapes, which lends citrus, guava and passionfruit aromas to the beer. The hazy IPA is fermented with Imperial Yeast’s Juice ale strain which enhances the beer’s already vibrant tropical flavors. At the same time, a double dry-hopping of Citra, Nelson Sauvin, and experimental HB586 gives it a massive hop presence. Sold in 16 oz. four-packs for $18 and cases for $75, Tenured Triple IPA has 10% ABV. Since one anniversary beer is never enough, Neshaminy Creek will also release Decadence, an opulent pastry stout brewed with mounds of flaked oats, 2-row, pale chocolate, and crystal malts for a rich and hearty body. This sumptuous confection was aged in Maker’s Mark barrels for 18-months and conditioned on cacao nibs, coconut, and Tahitian vanilla beans for a dessert-like flavor profile. Clocking in at 12.5% ABV, this beast of a beer is sold in 22 oz. bottles for $20. Both beers will also be available on draft starting on June 11 at the 10th Anniversary Party.

The 10th Anniversary marks a high note for the brewery, coming out of the pandemic with a strong leadership team, an award-winning line of beers, and a stable financial foundation focusing on future growth initiatives. In the coming months, renovations at the Croydon Taproom will reflect the rebrand and enhance the customer experience. Looking forward to the next ten years, Neshaminy Creek will push the limits to brew delicious and inventive craft beer to connect with a diverse community of beer drinkers including longtime supporters.

“The last ten years of being in the craft beer industry has been a wild ride,” says Rob Jahn, Founder and Owner of Neshaminy Creek Brewing Co. “As a small production brewery, it’s incredible to see how many other breweries have opened up in that time. We’ve had to adapt to all of that competition and of course, global events or supply chain issues that keep us on our toes. I’m so proud of everyone that’s been part of the last decade here and I can’t think of a better way to celebrate the ebbs of flows of the industry than cracking open some 10% beers in early June!”

Music & Comedy Return to Croydon: Two Days of Anniversary Celebrations at Taproom

For 10 years, Neshaminy Creek has been pairing great beer with music and entertainment. Neshaminy Creek’s old friend Danny Tamberelli, best known for his roles in Mighty Ducks and All That, returns to the Croydon Taproom with on-screen brother Michael C. Maronna to get the pre-party started Friday, June 10 at 8 p.m. Hosted by Jeremy Balon, The Adventures of Danny & Mike live podcast will be a night of beers, laughs, and nostalgia as the stars reminisce about growing up on the set of the Nickelodeon classic, The Adventures of Pete & Pete. Tickets for the podcast’s first show of the year are $25, and each attendee will receive a signed poster.

The celebration continues Saturday, June 11, 12-7 p.m. with an official 10th Anniversary Party featuring a full raucous lineup of some of the brewery’s favorite bands, including Screaming Females, Iron Chic, Wild Pink, Big Nothing, and Graduation Speech. Several food trucks will be on-site to satisfy hungry appetites, including Clean Plate Club, Byz Empire, Mr. Big Stuff Cookie, and El Sabor del Bajio. Ellis Coffee, The Bent Spoon, Philly Soft Pretzel, and El Secreto Empanada will also offer tasty treats. A kid’s corner, photo booth, Yardley Tattoo, and axe throwing with Bury the Hatchet will round out the celebration.

COLUMBUS, OHIO – Land-Grant Brewing Company and Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams have teamed up again on their fifth collaboration beer, Splendid Strawberry Oat Milkshake IPA, to be released ahead of their two-day celebration of Ohio’s Strawberry season this Memorial Day Weekend.

Jeni’s worked with Land-Grant to brew a decadent strawberry-forward Milkshake IPA that takes a cue from Jeni’s dairy-free ice cream offerings by utilizing oats and coconut flour to achieve its creaminess and subtle vanilla sweetness without the use of lactose.

“We don’t often do the full-on ‘Milkshake’ treatment – vanilla, fruit, lactose (or coconut flour, in our case),” said Land-Grant Head Brewer Dan Shaffer. “The opportunity to achieve this creamy texture utilizing coconut flour as a nod to Jeni’s masterful ‘Dairy-Free’ collection gives Splendid a nice nutty backbeat and a full body that complements the oats and perceived sweetness from the vanilla.”

Clocking in at a 7.75% ABV, Splendid Strawberry Oat Milkshake IPA features a berry-forward Belma and Barbe Rouge hops to enhance the fresh strawberry and subtle mango infusions, with aromas from vanilla bean that delivers a sweeter taste up front, followed by a slightly bitter finish from the hop/fruit/vanilla tannins that craft beer drinkers will surely appreciate.

Land-Grant will have Splendid available on draft and in 16 oz. four-packs – which will also be in central Ohio grocery stores – the week leading up to their fifth annual “Strawberry Jam” event with Jeni’s. Strawberry Jam – a family-friendly, picnic-style party making its return after a two year hiatus – also marks the annual release of Jeni’s Strawberry Buttermilk ice cream and the start of summer. The event will be hosted at Land-Grant’s Franklinton Taproom and Beer Garden over Memorial Day weekend on Saturday, May 28th and Sunday, May 29th from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. each day.

“We started Strawberry Jam as a way to honor what we do well in Columbus—rural and urban culture together, community and collaborations, quality and character, entrepreneurship and vision,” said Jeni Britton, founder of Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams. “To have it return as a two-day event, alongside another artisanal Land-Grant collaboration beer, feels extra special. We can’t wait to kick off summer together.”

Land-Grant will also release two additional Jeni’s collaboration beverages – a Strawberry Tart Ale and a Strawberry Hard Seltzer – to celebrate the seasonal summer fruit. These two warm-weather refreshers will be exclusively available on draft during the Strawberry Jam weekend event.

CAPE MAY, New Jersey – Cape May Brewing Company is excited to announce that their latest lager, Longliner, will be distributed in 12-packs of 12-ounce cans starting this month. Longliner Lager combines the best aspects of the company’s previous lagers to create a crisp, balanced, and sessionable beer to enjoy.

“Longliner has a little more hop character, and has a little drier and more crisp finish to it,” says Director of Brewing Operations James Fox. “It’s just as crushable. This is probably one of the best ones that we’ve made; it will be my go-to beer for the summer.”

Longliner is a 5.0% ABV lager brewed with pilsner and lager malt, Bohemian Lager yeast, and Saphir and Saaz hops for a subtle herbal and earthy hop aroma.

“To complement the ingredient notes, we opted for an earthy green color for this brand, and a more nautical theme to make it approachable for a number of consumers. This is a beer for those who want a clean, simple style to enjoy. There’s no fancy hops, or crazy extra ingredients—it’s just good beer,” says Marketing Director Alicia Grasso.

This brew is crafted to appeal to both casual drinkers and those looking for a refreshing beer to enjoy after a long day of work.

Longliner was first released in the Cape May Brewery Tasting Room last fall, and this is the first time that it will see distribution across the region.

Cape May Brewing is excited to delve back into their roots with a traditional style that both lager and craft fans can enjoy.

To celebrate Longliner’s distribution release, Cape May Brewing Company is offering a NOMAD® Grill giveaway to one lucky winner. The giveaway is live now and runs until July 31st, 2022. Customers can enter to win at Longliner point-of-sale displays at participating retailers.

Distribution in New Jersey has already begun, and distribution throughout eastern Pennsylvania will begin later this month, with Longliner 12-packs hitting Delaware starting in June.

Creators of festivals across the UK celebrating modern beer culture, We Are Beer, will feature a huge variety of the world’s finest beers at their festivals this summer. One such beer, Brave Noise, is a global collaborative effort from 262 breweries across the globe to provide inclusive and safe environments for women, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ throughout the beer industry. The Brave Noise beer is a summery sessionable beer perfect for drinking across this year’s We Are Beer festivals, brewed in the UK by Lost and Grounded.

A celebration of brewing culture, We Are Beer’s festivals include Bristol Craft Beer Festival, Manchester Craft Beer Festival, Beer Central (Birmingham), Glasgow Craft Beer Festival and London Craft Beer Festival – which celebrates its 10th year this year. To add to the celebrations, Brienne Allen, Ren Navarro and Ash Eilot from the Brave Noise team will be attending this year’s festival in London. The core mission of the festivals is celebrating the creativity, diversity, and dynamism of modern brewing culture, keeping beer exciting, inspiring and outward looking; bringing new people into modern beer culture to enjoy it.

The Brave Noise collaboration was inspired by those who have shared stories about gender discrimination, racism, sexual assault, and sexual harassment within the brewing industry. Over 70% of women in the UK say they have experienced some kind of sexual harassment in public. By joining the Brave Noise initiative, alcohol-related companies must post their code of conduct publicly, commit to the long-term work for safe and discrimination-free workspaces, and donate a majority of proceeds to a non-profit that reflects the Brave Noise mission. We Are Beer in turn have published on their website their code of conduct, harassment and discrimination policies, and promote the Everyone’s Welcome Initiative, which We Are Beer have implemented since the initiatives launch in 2018.

We Are Beer stands firm and supports this important movement for change, diversity, and inclusiveness. Beer has always been a great unifier, and Brave Noise Brew is helping bring the industry together, facilitating conversations about how as a whole the community can do better, and create inclusive and safe environments for staff and consumers. Festival fans and craft beer lovers will have the chance to enjoy a fun day out while enjoying this delicious brew.

Greg Wells, We Are Beer founder says of Brave Noise:

“We have been so inspired by the Brave Noise Organisation and their important message advocating for safe spaces and inclusive environments by requesting breweries be transparent with their policies and commit to long-term changes.

“We will be promoting this message of inclusivity to all 30,000+ attendees coming to all our We Are Beer festivals across the UK this summer, with the US Brave Noise team even joining us on site at London Craft Beer Festival’s 10-year anniversary.”

Brienne Allan, Co-Founder Brave Noise, Brewer and Co-Founder of Sacred Profane Brewery and Tankpub said:

“Accountability, transparency and action. That’s what we want to see through the Brave Noise collab and initiative. It’s great to see We Are Beer festivals stepping up to create safe spaces at their upcoming events. We need to see more folks around the globe taking the initiative to create safe spaces at fests.”

BOSTON, Massachusetts – The Fed, British-inspired cocktail pub inside The Langham, Boston, and Jack’s Abby Craft Lagers of Framingham, MA announced they have partnered to create the signature ‘Liquidity’ beer.

“We are always looking for ways to support our local businesses,” said Kyung Lee, Director of Food & Beverage at The Langham, Boston. “This opportunity with Jack’s Abby was the perfect partnership that not only allowed us to create a signature beer, but also partner with an outstanding local brewery.”

This new Pre Prohibition style lager – ‘Liquidity’ features a light, slightly sweet and biscuit flavor with a crisp finish. It will be available on tap only at The Fed. The launch of this beer times perfectly with the opening of The Fed Terrace that overlooks Pearl Street.

“We love working on creative collaborations and a wide range of lager at Jack’s Abby.  So when the team at the historic Langham Hotel approached us to design a beer together for The Fed Pub, it was an easy yes,” said Rob Day, Vice President of Marketing Jack’s Abby Craft Lagers. “As The Langham celebrates 100 years we thought it would be interesting to look back to the opening of the hotel for inspiration. Unfortunately, that was shortly after prohibition was initiated which gave us the idea to do a Pre Prohibition style lager. It’s the perfect way to honor the past and look to the future.  It was a pleasure to brew with the team at the Langham and we’re thrilled to share this beer.”

More to come in the future with this partnership between Jack’s Abby Craft Lagers and The Fed.

FREDERICK, Maryland – Each Spring, the team at Maryland’s Flying Dog Brewery is excited to bring back Dead Rise Summer Ale, the only beer made with the East Coast’s iconic OLD BAY seasoning. For the 2022 release, the brewery is doubling down on their spiced beer with the creation of an epic imperial version, Double Dead Rise. With almost double the ABV and more than double the McCormick’s OLD BAY, Double Dead Rise is double rare and double delicious.

In Double Dead Rise’s 9% ABV version of the hugely popular summertime beer, the bold spiciness of the OLD BAY and the lemony citrus notes are joined by a subtle heat brought on by the addition of habaneros. While a version of the beer was piloted as a tasting room only exclusive back in 2015 – when Flying Dog sold through 20 kegs in 48 hours – 2022’s Double Dead Rise is a new recipe that will be sold at retail for the first time ever.

“Here at Flying Dog, we don’t do anything small. So when it came time for the return of our annual limited release Dead Rise, we wanted to blow away consumers with the addition of an amped up imperial version,” said Ben Savage, Chief Marketing Officer at Flying Dog Brewery. “This one’s for the true fans, the ones that have OLD BAY cannisters stuffed in their glove compartment or attached to their belt loops in case they stumble upon a meal that needs that sprinkle of glorious seasoning.”

Dead Rise, the standard form of the beer, returns as a Summer Ale this year. The style, back by popular demand, is a change from the gose of previous years and contains more OLD BAY than earlier versions. Dead Rise carries a 5.7% ABV and the beer’s slightly salty sip of OLD BAY is balanced with lemon and citrus notes that help the flavors of any seafood on your plate pop.

While this beer should be on everyone’s ‘must-try’ list, its name, packaging, beneficiary, and obviously flavor, should resonate with those from Maryland, where OLD BAY runs through people’s veins. Once named ‘the most Maryland beer ever’ by The Washington Post, Dead Rise pays homage to the history of Maryland’s Chesapeake Bay and summer crab culture while also supporting the local industry.

Dead Rise has become the beer Marylanders use to kick off summer and this year, Flying Dog has made moves to have Dead Rise named the first ever official beer of the State of Maryland. The brewery started a petition to have Governor Larry Hogan make an official declaration.

Dead Rise will be available in 6-packs of 12oz bottles starting in May. Double Dead Rise will also be available in May in 4-packs of 12oz bottles but distribution is limited to DC, MD and VA.
