Dogfish Head & Atlas Obscura’s Gastro Obscura Collaborate For Craft Beer Experiment

May 11, 2022 by Dustin Scoggins

Dogfish HeadMILTON, Delaware – Dogfish Head Craft Brewery joins forces with Atlas Obscura’s food and drink vertical, Gastro Obscura, to launch a limited-edition, first-of-its-kind craft beer experiment: Fermentation Engastration. Unlike anything drinkers have ever tasted, Fermentation Engastration (10% ABV) draws inspiration from a collection of complex fermented beverages – a rose-scented sake, a Mid-Atlantic honey and date mead, a bittersweet hard cider, a fruity Muscat wine and a rustic farmhouse ale. The result? One eccentric, incomparable beverage that can only be described as the “Turducken” of the beer world.

Fermentation Engastration is brewed with a boatload of off-centered culinary ingredients, including barley, spelt, muscat grape juice concentrate, flaked rice, apple juice concentrate, honey rice syrup, date syrup, yeast, hops and rose petals. On the nose, this brewing innovation is bursting with classic spicy phenols, while the tasting experience packs an explosion of fruit character balanced by a slight sweetness. With only 1,000 (500ml) bottles made,Fermentation Engastration will be available for purchase at Dogfish Head’sMilton, Delaware, brewery, beginning Friday, May 6, as well as inselect U.S. states* from coast to coast via GiveThemBeer.com, beginning Friday, May 13, at 9 a.m. EST, while supplies last.

“Here at Dogfish Head, we’ve never been afraid to go against the grain with experimenting with unique, high quality culinary ingredients in our beers,” said Sam Calagione,Dogfish Head Founder & Brewer. “As brewers and ‘mad scientists’ of sorts, it’s always been a fascination of ours to deconstruct, reimagine and reassemble how drinkers experience each sip of a new beer. Our latest example of that thinking isFermentation Engastration, kind of like the ‘turducken’ of beer, which artfully melds a whole myriad of complex ideas and brewing concepts into one multi-layered drinking event.”

Originally brewed for Dogfish Head’s annual Weekend of Compelling Ales & Spirits, an off-centered food and beverage festival featuringGastro Obscura as this year’s featured guest, Fermentation Engastration seamlessly aligns with both the brewery andGastro Obscura’s missions. For Dogfish Head, Fermentation Engastration is a liquid representation of the brewery’s off-centered ethos, giving a loving nod to its history of pushing the boundaries of craft beer. As one of the world’s first modern craft breweries to brew beers with culinary ingredients outside the Reinheitsgebot, the German purity law stating beer can only be brewed with water, hops, barley and yeast,Dogfish Head prides itself on developing complex, diverse and adventurous craft beverages for drinkers looking to challenge the status quo, one sip at a time.

Similarly, Gastro Obscura encourages those with daring palettes to explore the world and its many wonders through the lens of food and drink. By sharing stories, hosting experiences and leading worldwide trips, Gastro Obscura strives to open folks’ minds (and stomachs) to new and exciting culinary experiences by unlocking their inner senses of wonder and curiosity.

“The curious minds at Atlas Obscura andDogfish Head share a common obsession with searching for the unusual in food and drink,” said Warren Webster,Atlas Obscura CEO. “We knew that anything could happen if we teamed up withDogfish Head, and sure enough we found magic in Fermentation Engastration.Like our partnership itself, this beer is proof that bringing together unexpected ingredients can yield wonderful results.”

20 Pennsylvania Veteran Breweries Join Together For Statewide Memorial Day Beer Release

May 11, 2022 by Dustin Scoggins

Pennsylvania VeteransPennsylvania – For a third year craft breweries from across Pennsylvania have joined together for the return of an all Pennsylvania Veterans beer collaboration. The beer is brewed by Pennsylvania Veterans in the support of Pennsylvania Veterans.

“Adapt And Overcome: Danger Zone Pale Ale” will release all throughout Pennsylvania on Memorial Day Weekend 2022 with proceeds of sales going directly to the Keystone Military Families organization.

Founded in 2002, Keystone Military Families was established with the goal of providing support for our deployed troops and their families. In 2010 they realized there was also a need for veteran support so they reorganized and expanded services. Located out of Shoemakersville, PA their mission is to support Pennsylvania military families every week with groceries, clothing, household items, furniture, and more while still shipping up to 100 care packages monthly and 10,000 Christmas stockings annually.

Not only is this a beer being produced by Pennsylvania veterans, but it will also include ingredients from Pennsylvania veteran-owned and operated businesses as well. Grain and malt for this beer will come from Deer Creek Malthouse in Glen Mills. While some of the hops being used for the beer have been produced by GEMS Farms Hops in Carlisle; both of which are veteran-owned businesses. To support the large volume of beer needed for this project the beer was brewed at Chatty Monks Brewing in Reading and Stone Bridge Brewing in Johnstown.

“Adapt And Overcome: Danger Zone” is a 6.3% Hazy Pale Ale brewed with Keystone Pale and Vienna malt. Strata and Triple Pearl hops were added at various points in the brew to offer consumers flavors and aroma of pineapple, papaya, melon, and berry with a dank and grassy finish. Malt character is supportive and crackery and balances out the subtle bitterness of this fluffy collaborative endeavor.

Consumers can begin enjoying the beer on Memorial Day Weekend 2022 at all participating breweries below:

•Arboretum Trail Brewing – Pittsburgh • Artifice Ales & Mead – Manheim • Black Forest Brewery – Ephrata • Burgh’ers Brewing – Pittsburgh • Cellar Works Brewing – Sarver • Cox Brewing – Elizabethtown • Deer Creek Malthouse – Glen Mills • Downriver Brewing – Stroudsburg • Eclipse Craft Brewing – Sunbury • GearHouse Brewing – Chambersburg • Hemauer Brewing – Mechanicsburg • McAllister Brewing Co – North Wales • Olde Bedford Brewing – Bedford • Root Down Brewing – Phoenixville • Seven Sirens Brewing – Bethlehem • Stone Bridge Brewing – Johnstown • Stony Run Brew House – York • Tattered Flag Brewing – Middletown • Ten7 Brewing – North Wales • Willow Creek Brewing – West Reading

Philadelphia’s Evil Genius Beer Heads to Ohio and Michigan as Part of National Expansion

May 10, 2022 by Dustin Scoggins

Philadelphia Evil Genius BeerPHILADELPHIA, Pennsylvania – After fervent success in the Northeast, the irreverent and nostalgic craft beer brand Evil Genius Beer Co. will expand distribution into Eastern and Central Ohio as well as Michigan’s Lower Peninsula this month, the first step in the company’s nationwide expansion plans.

Evil Genius Beer inked a deal with the OH-based Superior Beverage Group. Superior, a privately-held company with one hundred years of experience, will begin representing the brand in key OH markets this month including the cities of Cleveland and Columbus.

In Michigan, Evil Genius has partnered with a multitude of wholesale partners. Eastown Distributing and O&W Distributing will be representing the brand in the Southeast portion of the state including the Detroit and Ann Arbor metro areas respectively. I.H.S will be adding the brand to its portfolio in Southwestern Michigan including Kalamazoo. The Central Eastern counties will be served by J.P. O’Sullivan and will include the cities of Flint and Saginaw. Alpena Distributing will be the wholesaler in the Northeast between Gladwin and Presque Isle.

Evil Genius Beer Co, founded in 2011, prides itself on their “Very Silly Names for Very Serious Beers” and have quickly become recognized for their witty beer names often citing fan-favorite movie quotes, hilarious memes, and timeless song lyrics.

“Our goal is to provide an entirely new category of beer to the masses. Beer that not only delivers a great taste, but also evokes positive, nostalgic memories that make you feel good”, said Evil Genius Co-Founder Luke Bowen. “We’ve been amazed at the response we’ve had over the past ten years and can’t wait to introduce Evil Genius to new drinkers across the country”.

Bowen said, “We’ve had a lot of people asking for us to come to their state and we’re now at the stage that we can happily oblige them. We’re stoked to get on the shelves and into their hands.”
Evil Genius Co-Founder Trevor Hayward added, “Ohio and Michigan are home to some awesome beer drinking cities that are full of customers who have always wanted to try our beer. Hailing from PA, OH and MI make sense to kick off our westward expansion!”Since their inception Evil Genius has released over thirty uniquely named and flavored brews that have become some of the most sought after beers in the Northeast including: “Stacy’s Mom,” a Citra IPA, “Purple Monkey Dishwasher,” their Chocolate Peanut Butter Porter, and “There’s No Crying In Baseball,” a Hazy Mango IPA. All of which are slated for the brand’s initial rollout to Ohio and Michigan this month. After these first three releases, select markets will also start to get “Adulting,” a Guava infused IPA.

Evil Genius Beer will begin hitting shelves in Ohio’s metropolitan areas and surrounding suburbs this week and will be available in Michigan shortly thereafter over Memorial Day Weekend. In addition to independent bottle shops, Evil Genius will be available in Acme Fresh Market, Buehler’s Fresh Foods, Giant-Eagle, and Discount Drug Mart. The brand plans to expand into more regional hotspots throughout the US in 2022.

Invictus Brewing Celebrates the Sun with New 1.7 Million Megawatts Summer Ale

May 10, 2022 by Dustin Scoggins

Invictus BrewingBLAINE, Minnesota – In coordination with the National Craft Brewer’s Conference being hosted in Minnesota, Invictus Brewing announced its newest beer, “1.7 Million Megawatts Summer Ale.” The beer celebrates Invictus Brewing’s new rooftop solar array and educates people that there’s still plenty of sunshine to harvest in the service territory of its electric cooperative, Connexus Energy.

The beer’s bright golden color and crisp flavor (5.0 ABV, 20 IBU) are balanced with a touch of local honey harvested from pollinator-friendly solar farms by Invictus’ beekeeping friends at Bare Honey.

“We founded Invictus Brewing with the mission of making great beer and being good stewards of our environment,” said Previn Solberg, Invictus Brewing founder and CEO. “With this beer, we’re celebrating how easy our electric cooperative, Connexus Energy, made it to go solar — and we want people to know there’s plenty of beer and sunshine to go around.”

In a recent letter to its members, Connexus Energy CEO Greg Ridderbusch and Board Chair Fran Bator wrote: “Saving costs while greening the grid, Connexus Energy is now locally harvesting over 20 megawatts, enough to power more than 2,800 homes. We also applaud members who express their commitment to greening the grid through energy conservation, investing in their own rooftop solar panels, or joining our new Renewable Energy Club. And not to worry, there is plenty left — more than 1.7 million megawatts of sunshine is delivered to our service territory most days.”

Ridderbusch provided more detail at the electric co-op’s April annual meeting, stating: “The transforming grid will be composed of many solutions, and we support our members’ innovation. And with our membership in MnSEIA, we signal to the qualified vendor community our welcome mat helping our members consider direct solar solutions. As an alternative, members may also enroll in our Renewable Energy Club, where for a nominal fee, Connexus greens all electricity delivered to your home or business.” Ridderbusch’s remarks, recorded and available online, were accompanied by maps showing the growth in rooftop solar in the co-op’s service territory from 2013 to 2022.

Connexus Energy is Minnesota’s largest electric co-op, among the 15 largest cooperative electric utilities nationwide and has been nationally recognized for its “perfect power” service reliability, grid innovation, as well as solar land-use practices. A map of Connexus Energy’s 960 square-mile service territory graces the side of the Invictus beer can. 960 sq miles multiplied by 800 watts per square meter, as calculated by futurist and clean energy investor Ramez Naam in a 2011 Scientific American article, results in the number that inspired the beer’s name. The choice of May 3 for the introduction date was chosen in a nod to President Jimmy Carter, who, in 1976, officially designated the day to celebrate solar energy.

Scrag Mountain Pils Salt & Lime is the latest specialty beer that the Vermont-based brewery will release this year to its Northeast distribution territory. A new hop blend of Lawson’s Finest Super Session IPA will debut in June while Hopcelot, a renowned IPA brewed with eight different varieties of hops, will be released at the beginning of July.

Sycamore Brewing Announces Newest Beer, Brazilian Lemonade Gose

May 7, 2022 by Dustin Scoggins

Sycamore BrewingCHARLOTTE, North Carolina – Award-winning craft brewery Sycamore Brewing announces its newest beer, Brazilian Lemonade (5.6% ABV). The gose-style ale packed with citrus flavor is available today on-draft and in cans at the Charlotte-based taproom.

“We’re really letting the good “limes” roll with this sweet and zippy gose,” says Sycamore Brewing’s co-owner, Sarah Taylor Brigham. “It’s modeled after an actual non-alcoholic beverage that we love called Brazilian Lemonade, which ironically contains no lemons – just limes.”

Every sip of Brazilian Lemonade presents a smooth mouthfeel with an added tartness. It is crafted very simply by blending the main ingredient of fresh lime juice with condensed milk for a tart, lime-forward flavor that’s also sweet and creamy. The instantly refreshing beer will be available in four-packs at stores throughout North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Georgia and Ohio in the coming weeks, so it can be enjoyed all summer long.

Reuben’s Brews’ Summer Festivals Return for 10th Anniversary

May 7, 2022 by Dustin Scoggins

Reuben's Brews'SEATTLE, Washington – At Reuben’s Brews, 2022 started off with a big announcement: The brewery would release 10 collaboration beers to celebrate 10 years of business, community, and glass backwards brewing. Now Reuben’s is about to launch the fifth beer in the series, and plans to make the most of summer with a full calendar of events. Like many businesses, Reuben’s dialed back its events over the last two years, canceling some and going virtual with others. So founders Grace and Adam Robbings are excited to bring their festivals back again.

“Festivals are a fun way for us beer lovers to explore beer and learn more about what we enjoy,” says Grace. “We love putting these festivals on at Reuben’s Brews because it’s core to our DNA to brew a wide variety of beers, and we love helping people find their next adventure on their beer journey.”

Beginning in May, each month will feature a different signature event leading up to a big anniversary block party in early August. Following on the heels of the popular Coffee Beer & Donuts and Baby Goats & Brews, Haze Fest will kick off summer with an abundance of deliciously juicy and tropical beers. Then it’s Lager Fest in June, the return of Reuben’s & Friends Invitational in July, and a 10th Anniversary bash in August.

“We want to take this opportunity to thank our community who have been supporting us throughout this journey,” says Adam. “Our anniversary party is our chance to express gratitude to those who have been with us each step of the way—the customers who made everything possible, our friends in the industry whose support was invaluable, our suppliers whose awesome ingredients make our beers, and the neighborhood of Ballard who put their arms around us when we opened.”

May 14: Haze Fest

After going virtual during the pandemic, Reuben’s is bringing Haze Fest back to the Taproom. Expect some of your favorite hazy IPAs and several new beers along with half a dozen creative infusions like an IPA inspired by tiki cocktails, and four different guest taps.

June 25: Lager Fest

As the days get warmer, palates start to crave lighter, crisper styles of beer, and that means lager. So this year Reuben’s decided to have some fun with cold fermentation and throw an all-day party for Pilsner, Helles, Svetlé Pivo, and the wonderful world of lager.

July 16: Reuben’s & Friends Invitational

Reuben’s is bringing back its invitational festival this summer and plans to have more than 15 breweries in attendance pouring a wide range of ales and lager that Seattle beer fans might not otherwise have access to. Stay tuned for more information, including the taplist!

August 6: Anniversary Block Party

This is the big one! Reuben’s will be closing down the block to celebrate 10 years of brewing. They’ll also be pouring the final two beers in their 10th Anniversary Series, a collaboration with the Reuben’s Crew mug club and a barrel-aged blend created by its employees.

About Reuben’s Brews

Adam and Grace Robbings opened Reuben’s Brews in 2012, after an award-winning homebrewing career, naming it after their first child, Reuben. At their employee-owned family brewery they brew from the glass backwards: designing each beer with intention, unbound by constraints. They know that making that extra effort is worth it. From everyday favorites to innovative new releases, they help grow your love of beer. Reuben’s Brews. Beer Unbound.

The Reuben’s Brews Taproom (5010 14th Ave. NW in Ballard) is open daily 11am – 10pm, featuring an expanded outdoor seating area and To-Go Store. They strictly adhere to all current state and local health precautions to keep their customers and team safe.
