Summer is peaking and American craft brewers are welcoming the warm weather with fun new variety packs that make buying beer in bulk cool again.
Fat Head’s One Big Hoppy Family Variety Pack
Middleburg Heights, Ohio-based Fat Head’s Brewery has a fun new Variety Pack especially if you’re a hophead and an IPA lover.
The humorously named “One Big Hoppy Family Variety Pack” includes three of the brewery’s most popular IPAs and one “you can only get it here” exclusive.
This from Fat Head’s…
Sunshine Daydream Session IPA: One of the best session IPAs in America (if 5% constitutes a session beer) with big hop aromas and flavors of citrus, peach, orange and tropical fruit with a nice light malt backbone. This is my go-to backyard beer. ABV: 4.9%. IBU: 50.
Head Hunter IPA: Head Hunter is an award-winning, aggressively dry-hopped, West Coast-style IPA with a huge hop display of pine, grapefruit, citrus and pineapple. It’s one of the brewery’s flagship brands, and while this beer has tons of flavor, it is also a super clean drink. ABV: 7.5%. IBU: 80.
Groovy Juice Hazy IPA: Light in color, with a luscious, soft body, Groovy Juice Hazy IPA exudes tropical notes of passion fruit, melon and mango from Mosaic, Citra and Azzacca hops. This beer is dangerously crushable. ABV: 7.1%. IBU: 50.
Fresh Hop Freddy IPA: This variety pack exclusive has big, juicy tropical notes of guava, passionfruit, pineapple and melon, blended with bright citrus notes of lime and grapefruit. This brand uses fresh frozen hops to create its harvest-fresh flavor. ABV: 6%. IBU: 65.

Cape May Brewing Company Variety Pack
New Jersey’s Cape May Brewing Company just debuted their first variety 12-pack, a solid showcase of four of their flagships in a full spectrum of styles. From crisp and balanced to juicy and hazy, this featured lineup offers something for everyone.
Created with their consumers in mind, the Cape May Brewing Company Variety Pack provides new and existing drinkers the opportunity to enjoy their favorite beers without having to choose between them.
And here’s how Cape May Brewing describes them…
Cape May IPA (6.3% ABV)
The American IPA named for America’s Oldest Seaside Resort, Cape May IPA is loaded with floral and citrus notes, well-balanced with a zesty finish. A West Coast-style IPA brewed in the heart of the East Coast, it’s the beer that’s “Crafted on the Cape.”
Always Ready Hazy Pale Ale (4.8%)
With the addition of wheat and oats for a medium body and with brilliant aromas of tropical fruits like pineapple, mango, and citrus zest, this lush hop-bomb is Always Ready.
Cape May White (5.2% ABV)
Brewed with orange and lemon peels, coriander, grains of paradise, and Belgian Witbier yeast. Fruity esters up-front with an easy-drinking finish yields a traditional Belgian-Style Wheat Ale brewed in the heart of the East Coast.
Longliner Lager (5% ABV)
Soft, crisp, and balanced—Longliner Lager is a beer that will keep you going all year long. Whether you’re toiling away in the brewhouse, hitting land after a long two weeks at sea, or kicking back on your day off, Longliner will be there for you.

Rogue Dead Guy Coffin Club Variety Pack
One of the Pacific Northwest’s original craft breweries, Rogue Ales & Spirits has released a fun variety pack that builds on the legacy of the brewery’s most popular beer of over 30 years, Dead Guy Ale.
In addition to its renowned Dead Guy Ale, a 6.8% ABV Maibock-Style Ale, the Coffin Club Variety Pack also includes its recently released Dead Guy IPA (7% ABV) and two exclusives, Dead Guy Pilsner (5% ABV) and Dead Guy Pale Ale (5.5% ABV).
“We expanded the Dead Guy legend for those who connect with the spirit and image that Dead Guy represents, but aren’t always looking to enjoy our riff on a Maibock,” says Hagen Moore, VP of Marketing and Creative….
“We wanted to make a product worthy of the Dead Guy name for everyone to enjoy – a Dead Guy for every moment. Our variety pack offers a taste of it all. The OG ale for our longtime fans, an IPA for the hopheads, a light crisp pilsner for day-to-night sipping, and a well-balanced pale ale to round it out. There’s something for everyone and every mood.”
