Temperance Beer Co. To Release ‘Spaced Out’ Helles Lager

August 30, 2022 by Dustin Scoggins

Temperance Beer CompanyEVANSTON, Illinois – Temperance Beer Co. is proud to announce the return of Spaced Out, an easy-drinking true-to-style Helles lager that weighs in at 5% alc/vol. The beer was first brewed in the fall of 2021 for Out Of Space, an annual 4-day music festival held at the brewery featuring indie rock, hip hop, world, and Americana music, local food vendors, and of course – Temperance Beer. The event is co-promoted with Evanston SPACE and takes place September 1-4, 2022, outdoors in the parking lot at Temperance Beer Co.

Spaced Out will be available on tap and in cans starting Thursday, September 1st, only at the brewery during Out of Space 2022. Starting Tuesday, September 6, the beer will be available at the brewery on tap and in 6-packs to go, depending on availability. Evanston SPACE (1245 Chicago Ave, Evanston, IL 60202) will also carry Spaced Out on tap.

“Out of Space is a unique and, I’d say, amazing example of what can happen when a local music venue and a local brewery get together and create something together that neither could have done on their own. Last year we decided to collaborate on a beer designed complement and enhance the Out of Space experience. We created Spaced Out, which is everything a perfect summer concert beer should be – crisp, refreshing, and lower in alcohol.” – Founder, Josh Gilbert

About Temperance Beer Co.

As Evanston’s first and oldest brewery, they’ve never wanted to “keep up with the Joneses.” Through its award-winning yet accessible beers and investment in the community, they are creating a whole new neighborhood. The brewery has been featured in numerous media such as TimeOut Chicago, ABC-TV, Zagat, Crain’s Chicago Business, Red Eye, WCIU-TV, WBEZ-FM, the New York Times, WTTW News, and the Chicago Reader, among others. In its first competition, at just over a year old, Temperance took home a Silver Medal from the 2014 Great American Beer Festival® for Gatecrasher®, its English-style IPA. Gatecrasher followed up with GABF gold two years later. Temperance Beers are available throughout the Chicago metropolitan area and Colorado.

Temperance Beer Co. (2000 Dempster Street Evanston, Illinois 60202) is open daily from noon-10 pm, featuring an outdoor beer garden and full Tap Room.

Wild Leap Announces Two New Fall Beers

August 29, 2022 by Dustin Scoggins

Wild LeapLaGrange, Georgia – Wild Leap, Georgia-based brewery, distillery and winery, announces two new craft beverages perfect for the transition into fall. Oktoberfest and Coast West ‘22 join Wild Leap’s exceptional line of delicious products and will be exclusively offered in Georgia.

In anticipation of Oktoberfest, held in Munich, Bavaria Germany for 187 years – the most celebrated beer festivals in the world, Wild Leap will release its Bavarian-style lager sitting at an ABV 6.3%, IBU 20. Featuring four German malts and Herkules and Perle hops, this traditional Oktoberfest-inspired beer is a smooth amber lager with a medium body and slightly sweet caramel notes.

Wild Leap introduces the newest addition of its highly anticipated Coast West line: Coast West ‘22. A liquid union of the East and West, this year’s edition is brewed with Frozen Fresh Cryo hops for a bright, straight-from-the-vine hop aroma. The double IPA combines the soft and juicy elements of an East Coast IPA with traditional West Coast yeast and piney bitterness and has an ABV 10.0%, IBU 49.

“It’s always fun for us to lean into special seasonal flavors and create beers that interest all types of people, whether they are beer connoisseurs who seek out the best double IPAs or the craft-curious who like to experiment with new flavors,” said Chris Elliott, Chief Brewing Officer. “Each season is an opportunity for us to put our own unique spin on classic beverages.”

About Wild Leap:

Established in 2017, Wild Leap provides consumers with exceptional craft beverages that range from beer, spirits and cocktails. Founders Rob Goldstein and Anthony Rodriguez saw a gap in the alcoholic beverage market, so they created drinkable, approachable and high-quality products. Hailing from LaGrange, Georgia, Wild Leap will soon have a multi-level, 15,340 square-foot brewery, distillery and event destination in Atlanta’s Centennial Yards. Wild Leap can be found across the southeast including Georgia, South Carolina and Alabama.

Lawson’s Finest Releases New Super Session IPA Available Year-Round in Northeast

August 29, 2022 by Dustin Scoggins

Lawson's Finest LiquidsWAITSFIELD, Vermont – Lawson’s Finest Liquids is redefining its Super Session series of IPAs, announcing today that the brewery is introducing its first Super Session IPA  featuring multiple hops. Made with a blend of Lotus and Mosaic hops, Lawson’s Finest Liquids Super Session will now be available year-round throughout a nine-state distribution area (VT, CT, MA, ME, NH, NJ, NY, PA, RI) in the Northeast.

Lawson’s Finest Liquids’ Super Session series began with a series of limited, specialty-release beers focused on a singular hop variety, with a lower ABV than many of the brewery’s famed IPAs. Past iterations of the Super Session IPA were brewed with Amarillo, Comet, Centennial, Galaxy, Idaho and Mosaic hops. At 4.8% ABV, the new Super Session IPA features a blend of Lotus and Mosaic hops, making it complex, uniquely satisfying and approachable.

“For years, we’ve enjoyed perfecting our Super Session beers, experimenting with different hops and recipes to find just the right flavor and feel,” said Sean Lawson, CEO and founding brewer of Lawson’s Finest Liquids. “The new Super Session pays homage to its predecessors, bringing tropical elements like stone fruit together with hints of citrus, vanilla and berry thanks to the interplay between Lotus and Mosaic hops.”

Beginning this week, Super Session will be available in both 4-packs (16 oz. cans) and 12-packs (12 oz. cans). Lawson’s Finest fans across the Northeast can find their nearest retailer here. Later this year, Lawson’s Finest will continue their specialty releases throughout the Northeast with the launches of Big Hoppy, Mad River Maple, and their award-winning Fayston Maple Imperial Stout Aged in Mad River Distillers Rum Barrels.

ABOUT LAWSON’S FINEST LIQUIDS: 

Lawson’s Finest Liquids crafts and delivers the finest and freshest beer possible to delight our fans and to cultivate healthy, vibrant communities through our Social Impact Program. The brewery is a values-driven business with a commitment to excellence, authenticity, community, sustainability and fun. Founded by Sean and Karen Lawson, the company boasts a growing collection of award-winning beers brewed with passion and precision including the renowned Sunshine family of IPAs. Beginning as a home-based 1bbl nanobrewery in 2008, Lawson’s Finest expanded production capacity in 2011 and 2014, growing to include distribution across nine states in the Northeast. In 2018, Lawson’s Finest opened its popular destination Brewery, Taproom and Retail Store in central Vermont’s Mad River Valley town of Waitsfield.

Threes Brewing Releases Oktoberfest Lager

August 28, 2022 by Dustin Scoggins

Threes BrewingBROOKLYN, New York – Celebrating the changing of seasons, Threes Brewing just released Hereafter, a brand new Oktoberfest Lager. Inspired by the world’s largest beer fair in Munich, this style has historically represented community and gathering. Staying true to tradition, Threes’ iteration of this beloved style uses 100% German ingredients and is ultra-smooth and balanced. Notes of dried herbs and golden crust are apparent, thanks to a hefty dose of German Vienna Malt body, and German Spalter Select Hops, which bring the appropriate bitterness and notes of noble spice.

Pouring with a deep orange hue and clocking in at 5.5% ABV, which is on the higher end for Threes’ lagers, the alcohol content helps this soft lager stand up to colder autumn weather. As a lager brewery that prides itself on being a gathering space, Oktoberfest is a beer style that brings the Threes ethos full circle.

Matt Levy, Head Brewer, says, “This style is less about the beer and more about what the beer symbolizes: beer as a conduit to togetherness, community, seasonal transition rituals, and an appreciation for what came before us.”

August 28, 2022 by Dustin Scoggins

PA PridePennsylvania – For the third time in 2022 (and seventh time overall) breweries from all across Pennsylvania have teamed together on a special beer collaboration that celebrates the rich agricultural history the state is well known for. The “PA Pride” beer series has become synonymous with connecting Pennsylvania craft breweries for more than a year. After six successful releases, the series returns with a special Multi-Grain Saison that will release at more than 20 craft breweries in Pennsylvania on Friday, August 26th.

This Multi-Grain Saison is brewed celebrating locally made grain and malt from Deer Creek Malthouse (West Chester, PA) and hops from King of Prussia, PA based Zuckerman Honickman as well as GEMS Farms in Carlisle, PA. These ingredients will showcase the robust flavors being produced by Pennsylvania’s deep agriculture industry.

The beer will be packaged and released in 16-ounce cans by over 20 breweries in Pennsylvania that have teamed up as a part of the collaboration. In addition to the packaged cans, several of the breweries carrying this beer will also have it available on draft. As with all the previous releases, this beer’s label features artwork encapsulating the Pennsylvania agriculture landscape.

Production for a majority of the Saison brew took place at Bald Birds Brewing in Audubon, PA.  Patrick Countryman, Head Brewer of Bald Birds described the version of this beer as “a Belgian-style saison containing a complex, earthy blend of barley, rye, buckwheat, and sorghum, and with floral and grapefruit notes from PA-Grown Comet hops from GEMS Farms. In addition, customers can expect subtle notes of pepper and spice with a touch of sweetness.” This version of PA Pride offers consumers a balanced flavor profile with a thick and chewy body that transitions to the crisp, dry finish of a classic Saison.

This Multi-Grain Saison is the third release in the PA Pride series in 2022. In addition to these releases, an Amber Lager is planned to release to the public towards the end of the year. Be sure to follow BreweriesInPA.com/PAPride for all current and future release details, including a map of all breweries which will have these beers available for sale.

D9 Brewing Releases Four New Beers

August 27, 2022 by Dustin Scoggins

D9 BrewingCHARLOTTE, North Carolina – One of the original trendsetting breweries of the Southeast, North Carolina’s D9 Brewing Company is releasing four new beers in conjunction with Bevana, the beverage platform responsible for expanding more than a dozen artisan beer, kombucha, and seltzer companies across the country through their innovative e-commerce and distribution network. The beers will be launching in D9’s three taprooms as well as select bottle shops and craft beverage stores across the region beginning on August 27th.

The release will be spearheaded by Head of the Horsemen, a 10% Imperial Pumpkin Ale that has been among the nation’s most lauded fall beers, and the brewery’s most anticipated seasonal offering.

“Almost since the beginning of our history, Head of the Horsemen has been that one release where we have really been able to show the world what we can do at our best,” says Andrew Durstewitz, Founder and CEO of D9. “We innovated a lot of the ‘Flavor First’ attitude that has come to define the craft beer industry, and more than ever these releases let us show that we’re continuing to both innovate, and respect the legends that built our company in the first place.”

Head of the Horsemen’s release will be accompanied by Carolina Gold, a Bevana-led collaboration of four of the Queen City’s most respected breweries: Divine Barrel Brewing, Pilot Brewing Company, Salud Cerveceria, and Wooden Robot Brewery. An India Pale Lager, which ties directly into the third season of Amazon Prime documentary Crafted, allowing fans the opportunity to drink alongside the show in real-time.

Two additional D9 beers will also launch on the 27th. The first, Festbier, is in a traditional Bavarian style associated with the annual celebration of Oktoberfest. A regular seasonal offering, it is easy-drinking, but still full of flavor and paired perfectly with the fall drinking season.

The second, Luchile Libre, is a Double IPA brewed with green Hatch Chiles, drawing directly from D9 Master Brewer Levi Duncan’s roots in the American Southwest.

“As a New Mexico native it is really awesome to be able to introduce Hatch Green Chile and its subtle flavor and heat that is so ingrained in southwestern culture into a beer like this.” said Duncan about the beer. “Being able to pull ingredients from my background that have the same sense of quality and of locality as the beer that we make is truly special to me. Great ingredients make for great beer, and we’ve never shied away from pushing into new frontiers and new directions when it comes to what we make.”

The beers’ release will also be accompanied by fortune tellers, ghost stories, a food truck, and music. They may be found at each of D9’s three North Carolina taprooms in Uptown Charlotte, Cornelius, and Hendersonville. They will also be available in select markets, as well as at the Bevana Newton taproom, also in North Carolina.
