Prost Brewing Company Releases Summer Seasonals Brewed in Northglenn

by

NORTHGLENN, Colorado -Prost Brewing Co., the Colorado brewery dedicated to the pursuit of German craft bier perfection, announces the release of two new summer seasonal offerings both brewed at its new Northglenn, Colo., brewery: Summer Lager and the Summer Variety Pack. Drink like a German all summer long at a Prost biergarten in Northglenn, Denver, Highlands Ranch or Fort Collins or grab them at retail in Prost’s five-state distribution area across Colorado, Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, Idaho, and Montana.

Summer Lager (5.8% ABV) – Make this crisp lager part of your summer tradition. Prost’s Summer Lager is fruity, easy to drink and playful. Simultaneously complex and intricate while remaining balanced and smooth, it’s the ideal complement to the season. A Munich-style Export Lager characterized by flavors of stone fruit, floral spice, sweet biscuit and a crisp, dry finish, Summer Lager is available on draft and in 6-packs of 12 oz. cans.

Summer Variety Pack – Summer Lager joins three Prost flagship lagers in this limited-time seasonal 12-pack of 12 oz. cans. Perfect for gatherings with friends during the warm-weather season, this pack contains three cans of four Prost favorites: Summer Lager, Prost Pilsner (4.9% ABV), Prost Dunkel (5.6% ABV), and Prost Kölsch (4.8% ABV).

“These biers were crafted in our new Northglenn brewery headquarters using a combination of time-honored German methods and state-of-the-art equipment,” said Prost Brewing Co. President David Deline. “We hope you enjoy them while partaking in other fine German summer traditions, like drinking bier in the sunshine and gathering with friends for live music and yard games.”

All of Prost Brewing Co.’s award-winning biergarten-style biers begin with authentic, hand-selected malt, hops, water and yeast, crafted through the patient process of slow lagering. The team at Prost believes in preserving processes like these, which have been perfected over centuries, in order to craft the highest quality biers.

Just like the summer season, these seasonal biers won’t last forever. Learn more about Prost Brewing Co. and where to find Prost’s award-winning German-inspired, Colorado crafted biers at prostbrewing.com.

LUKI Brewery to Unveil Sustainability Metrics and Release Beer with Sustainable Grain on Earth Day

by

ARVADA, Colorado – Operating a brewery uses a lot of natural resources. Since day one LUKI Brewery has designed and developed its processes to focus on responsible sustainability practices for breweries similar in size. For LUKI, self-reporting is the first step towards making sure that the brewery is performing at optimal levels.

“After almost three years, we feel it’s time to benchmark our efforts, and we’re happy to see results like our water usage,” says LUKI Co-Founder and Ringmaster Jeff Smith. “Breweries of our size use a median of 13 gallons of water to one gallon of beer out of the tap. In 2022, we had a 7-to-1 ratio, and will continue efforts to improve as we grow.”

The brewery’s self-reporting, which will be shared on April 22, is the kick-off to LUKI’s Earth Day celebration. The brewery has teamed up with Scraps Mile High, a compost pick-up service, to brew a beer using a sustainable grain called Kernza® from Sustain-A-Grain. This perennial grain grows year-round and has massive roots that help improve air, soil and water quality. Mobius Loop, a light Blonde Ale with a slightly sweet, nutty flavor, as well as a 5-gallon cask-version of the beer with local honey from the downtown Denver rooftop beehives at Civic Center Plaza, will tap at noon.

Sustainability practices can be a daunting task so LUKI has also invited the following vendors for an informational open house from 3 to 6:30 p.m.

  • Scraps Mile High: premiere compost pickup service
  • Homestead in the Hood: bringing hive fresh honey to your home
  • Rose Roots Community Garden: organic community garden
  • And more to come! Check LUKI’s website frequently for updates

Hip Hop and Funk Group, People In Between, will play two sets (3-4:30 p.m. and 5 to 6:30 p.m.) and D’Toque Food Truck will be stationed at the brewery serving up delicious Salvadorian eats.

“Preserving natural resources has been in our DNA since back in our homebrewing days where we were coming up with ways to save and reuse as much water as possible,” says Smith. “So come and check out what we’re up to and learn how you can also take small steps to preserve our environment!”
