Spring Is ON, and  summertime not all that far away. So American craft brewers are celebrating things with a smart roster of artisan brews you’re gonna want to have around.

Sound Czech Gets Brand Refresh (Athens, GA) – Terrapin Beer has updated the look of one of their most popular core beers that was first released as part the brewery’s Georgia Theatre Series to help restore a musical landmark that was gutted by a fire in 2009. Brewed with 100% Pilsner malt, for exceptional crispness, Terrapin Sound Czech  is an exceptionally crisp 5.2% ABV  German-style Pilsner with a clean, bready malt sweetness offset by a bright, dry finish.

Originally a spring seasonal, it is now widely available year-round in 12oz cans and on draft. the beer received a brand refresh in early 2025, featuring music-themed artwork inspired by the Grateful Dead’s legacy.

Modern Brewing ( Fort Collins, CO) – Odell Brewing has just released modern interpretation of one of craft beer’s most beloved styles that we can’t wait to get our hands on. Built on the brewery’s decades-long commitment to hop innovation, Odell MDRN IPA is a 5.8% ABV modern take on the India Pale Ale crafted with Yakima Valley-grown HBC 638 Hyperboost®, CRYO Krush®, and Mosaic®, along with an experimental hop from Clayton Farms in New Zealand.

“Our hop partnerships go back decades,” said Brendan McGivney, Odell Brewing’s COO. “Those relationships allow us to experiment with new hop processing techniques and blends that push the limits of what an IPA can be. MDRN IPA represents the next step in that evolution.”

Pace Yourself (San Diego, CA) – AleSmith Brewing has a new addition to its year-round portfolio that we can’t wait to get our hands on. inspired by the brewery’s legendary Speedway Stout. but in a lighter, more sessionable format AleSmith Pace Car is  a smooth and uber-creamy 6% ABV Nitro Coffee Stout with rich and seductive coffee and chocolate tones, complemented by notes of roasted barley and subtle toffee character.

Packaged in 16oz 4-pack cans and draft, AleSmith Pace Car Nitro is now available at the brewery’s taproom as well as online and at many retail outlets in California, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Minnesota, Texas, Illinois, Washington, Oregon, Arizona, Virginia and Washington DC.
