Getting Wiley (Greely, CO) – On August 13th Wiley Roots Brewing will be releasing the latest from its popular “Packed With” Series, which focuses on barrel aged sours that are re-fermented on whole fruit. The culmination of over two years of dedication to mixed-culture barrel aged beers, Wiley Roots Packed With Peaches was barrel fermented and then aged, for 18 months then re-fermented and aged on three pounds per gallon of peaches from the Western Slope of Colorado for an additional six months!

Do What You Otto Brew (Plymouth, MA) – Mayflower Brewing just released something summery that was brewed as a homage to Otto, a German shorthaired pointer mix and Mayflower’s most famous employee. Brewed with classic German Tettnang and Hallertau hops, Mayflower Ottobahn is a dry and refreshing Helles-style Lager with a golden straw color and a faint sweetness.
Scholarly Drinking (Newport, OR) – Rogue Ales has returned a special limited release and a portion of its sales go to helping support students at Oregon State University’s Fermentation Science program. With its label a humorous homage to Rogue founder Jack Joyce and his love of hot tubs, Rogue Hot Tub Scholarship Lager is exactly that, a 5.47% ABV Kölsch-style lager brewed with Bohemian lager yeast and free-range costal water.
Angel City Doubles Down For IPA Day (Los Angeles, CA) – Angel City Brewery is celebrating IPA Day by doubling down on America’s most beloved style. A fan favorite at the brewery’s Public House, Angel City Double IPA is an 8.6% ABV India Pale Ale brewed to satiate even the most rabid hophead.
